What's happening in the Meg Harris series

As you can see from my previous post, my plan was to bring you photos of the West Quebec forest that inspired the setting of the Meg Harris series, but technology has defeated me. At least the technology associated with this particular blog software. It won't let me reduce the size of the pictures. As a result a single photo more than fills the page and would take an age to download with a dial-up connection. And I had been planning on showing you 13 shots. So forget that. I think for the moment I will have my web-guy, who is an absolute wizz at this stuff, post the photos to my website until I find another solution.

In the meantime, however, that doesn't mean I can't use this blog. I think it is a terrific idea and it helps me get closer to you the readers of the Meg Harris series, which as you know debuted last fall with 'Death's Golden Whisper'.

'Red Ice for a Shroud', the next in the series, comes out in 2006. As the name suggests, it takes place in winter, early winter to be exact, when a nasty old man and a surprise blizzard put a crimp in Eric's plan to create a network of trails for the first ever Migiskan Ski Marathon and jeopardizes Meg's investment in the venture. But the calamity doesn't end with the snow. Meg and Eric discover the frozen naked body of one of Meg's trail clearing crew and another is charged with her murder.

And yes, Eric, is back as I'm sure you suspected from the ending of Death's Golden Whisper. But things are a little rocky between Eric and Meg, which leads Meg to cast her eyes elsewhere.

And that is about all I will say for the moment. So stay tuned for more news about 'Red Ice for a Shroud'.
