GREAT NEWS!!
THE CLIFF HOUSE STRANGLER -- book #3 in the Sarah Woolson historical mystery series -- has sold out and is going into a second printing! I want to thank all of Sarah's many loyal fans for making the series such a huge success! Please tell your friends who haven't read THE CLIFF HOUSE STRANGLER that it will be back on book shelves soon! Just in time for Christmas! (Of course you can always order all three books in the series right here on the website).

CALLING ALL SARAH WOOLSON FANS!!!
You can help Sarah reach more readers by calling (or visiting online) your local library and requesting that they carry THE CLIFF HOUSE STRANGLER, the third book in the Sarah Woolson historical mystery series! This is a great way to make sure that everyone has access to these books!!
You can also help Sarah by telling your friends and family about the series. My goal is to get the Sarah Woolson books published in paperback, and for that we need to sell as many hardcover copies as possible. Every time you buy a copy of MURDER ON NOB HILL, THE RUSSIAN HILL MURDERS and especially THE CLIFF HOUSE STRANGLER, we move one book closer to that goal. So, PLEASE, spread the word!!

So many of you have asked me when the audio version of THE CLIFF HOUSE STRANGLER (from Blackstone Audio) will be released. I recently received word that it will be out on CD, cassette tapes and MP3 sometime in December.

THE CLIFF HOUSE STRANGLER has received a STARRED review from Library Journal!!!
It reads: * "It is 1881, and San Francisco attorney Sarah Woolson has opened her own law firm (over the wishes of her respectable family). When she and her colleague Robert Campbell attend a seance run by a new medium at the famed Cliff House, a reporter with a habit of digging up dirt on prominent people is strangled. Sarah is hired to represent the man accused of the crime, but soon there are other murders. Once again bringing Victorian San Francisco to colorful life, Tallman offers an entertaining mystery with an indomitable, independent heroine that will appeal to fans of Anne Perry and Rhys Bowen. This is a series to watch, sure to get better with each succeeding book."
