Jaime Temairik + Kevin Emerson, Joint Launch Party!
Secret Garden Books, Tuesday, May 21 at 7pm
F.o.G.s are converging upon the Garden with dovetailing release dates with spectacular simultaneousness!

In actuality, two great friends of ours (Friends of the Garden), who happen to be some of the most exciting minds in kid lit today, are celebrating their new books' simultaneous release dates here. With us! So we're throwing a party!

Jaime Temairik's new book springs from the loins of a grown up series of mysteries by Lisa Lutz. Stay with us here. The Spellman Files are this rollicking series. One of the characters in the books is an author. His name is David Spellman. He does not exist except within the pages of said book. He is the author of Jaime's book, of which she is the illutrator. Additionally, Ms. Temairik is the author/illustrator of an upcoming picture book that does not yet exist. But this book, which she merely illustrated, already exists.

Have you ever wanted something and been told no? Then How to Negotiate Everything is the book for you. Through several simple steps, you will learn the best way to ask for what you want and how to ask for more of what you want. Jaime's blog. We have long been fans of our friend Kevin Emerson's books for middle grade readers, the Oliver Nocturne series of mysteries set right here in our neighborhood. His new one for that age is the fantastic The Fellowship for Alien Detection. The Atlanteans series for older tweens and teens, of which tonight's book is the second installment, has been garnering fantastic reviews. In Dark Shore, Owen, Lilly, and Leech have escaped Camp Eden, but the next step on their journey to find Atlantis and protect it from Paul and Project Elysium involves crossing the perilous wastelands of a wrecked planet. And unlike in EdenWest, where bloody truths were kept hidden beneath the surface, out here the horrors live bright beneath the poisonous sun. Kevin's site.

Capacity for Murder, with Bernadette Pajer
Eagle Harbor Book Company, Thursday, May 23 at 7:30pm
Please join us welcoming back Seattle mystery writer Bernadette Pajer for the latest in her Professor Bradshaw mystery series, Capacity for Murder.

At the dawn of the 20th century, Healing Sands Sanitarium, southwest of Seattle, is famed for its restorative cures, fermented diets, and Dr. Hornsby's electrotherapeutics. No one has ever died at Healing Sands. Until now.

When Professor Bradshaw is summoned to investigate, he know this was no accident, but clues to foul play are as insubstantial as smoke -- to anyone other than an electrical engineer. A sinister tale emerges as he investigates, and an everyday object provides the key, alerting Bradshaw that one among them is a dead man walking, while another possesses the Capacity for Murder!

Pajer is a graduate of the University of Washington, and a proud member of the Mystery Writers of America, Sisters in Crime, Northwest Science Writers, the Washington Academy of Sciences, and the Seattle7Writers. This is the third book in her Professory Bradshaw mysteries, after A Spark of Death and Fatal Induction.

K.J. Larsen signs Some Like It Hot
Seattle Mystery Bookshop, Saturday, May 25 at 12pm
It's a week before Thanksgiving. PI Cat DeLuca has tailed a client's husband and his lover to a Bridgeport pub where she snags the photos she needs to tie the finishing bow on another case. Cat sips her beer and is thinking about lunch when a man dressed as Santa Claus walks into the bar. He speaks briefly with the bartender and disappears behind doors designated Employees Only. Ten minutes later there's a commotion and Santa charges out. Santa's eyes meet Cat's and flash recognition. The man in the Santa suit is BillBonham, class clown from Cat's days at Bridgeport High School. ----Garret shoots a goofy grin and tweeks a thumb/pinky to his ear. Call me.

Bill (AKA Santa) was working a case when chased from the pub. His client is Lynn Leigh, a former bartender at O'Dwyer's Pub. Lynn left her job (and town) abruptly ten years ago after witnessing a murder. Soon Cat is involved in this investigation and calling on her past cases to get to the bottom of a case that leaves her wondering whether she likes the heat or should just get out of the kitchen.

“K.J. Larsen” is actually three sisters. Two of them, Kari and Juli, will be here to sign.

She will be on hand to sign books and speak informally to her fans. All we ask is you purchase one of her new books at our store, so we can continue to host these great events! (SeaMystery)
