“I have an annoying request,” said one of my readers, through Facebook.

This man buys my books and tells me he loves them. He is never annoying. So of course I wanted to know what this request was. I’m not naming him in case he wants to keep his privacy.

He wanted to buy “Om,” my Ellery Queen’s Mystery Magazine yoga murder story, in paperback so he could share it easily with his non-ereader friends.

Hot diggity dog! Ask and ye shall receive.

Now five of my mystery stories are available in a new collection called Reckless Homicide: Five Tales of Death and Deception. It includes the following five stories (Indian Time, Blood Diamonds, The War of the Janitors, Om, and Because) in one single e-book or paperback. Yay! My hard drive broke, and I’m working on primitive browsers, so click here to buy in the format of your choice: http://melissayuaninnes.com/books/reckless-homicide-five-tales-of-death-and-deception/.
