Love and Bullets Audio Book

Exciting times…production on Love and Bullets, the second Sam Smith Mystery Series audio book, is about to start. Once again, Suzan Lynn Lorraine will narrate the book and we aim to release it in mid-October. Suzan did an outstanding job on Sam’s Song so I’m delighted that she has agreed to narrate Love and Bullets. You can listen to a sample from Sam’s Song by following this link and if you only want to own one copy of the book I urge you to own the audio book version because the narration really is of the highest quality. Audio Book Link

Completed the writing phase of Ripper today, book four in the Sam Smith Mystery Series. This story is a modern day version of Jack the Ripper and it takes my narrator, Sam, on an emotional rollercoaster ride as she seeks to uncover Jack’s identity, a trail that leads to a shocking discovery. Hopefully, the editing phase will be completed by the end of July and the book is due for publication in October.

The Big Chill

Published today in print and as an eBook. This is the third book in the Sam Smith Mystery Series and in this book someone is out to murder Sam. At one point in the story she constructs a list of possible suspects and concludes, ruefully, that “I’m about as popular as a wasp in a nudist colony.” Is the assassin on her list, or is she looking in the wrong direction? I guess you have to read the book to find out. More details can be found on my Amazon page http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hannah-Howe/e/B00OK7E24E/ref=ntt_athr_dp_pel_1

Sam’s Song

Sam’s Song

cover-7

I am currently revisiting this book because it’s in production as an audio book, beautifully read by Suzan Lynn Lorraine. I was wary at first as I re-read the book, fearful that I’d find nothing but flaws. However, as a reader and not the writer, I was delighted to find that I still like the book and that it still packs an emotional punch. I am very proud of the book and the way it deals with some sensitive subjects. I also think my decision to include humour in the story was the right one because it adds balance and credibility to the characters.

Sam’s Song is the story of a woman coming to terms with her violent past while looking forward to a brighter future. The book combines mystery, romance and humour and lays the foundation for the series. 

As I write this review I’m writing Ripper, book four in the series, and it’s interesting for me to see how Sam has developed as a person over the course of the four books. The Sam Smith Mystery Series is essentially about Sam’s journey through life and if you decide to join her on that journey I hope you enjoy the ride.
