Last day to party

It's simple, hangover-curing literary lagniappe for the final day of the STRIKE PRICE release party. Just questions.

Why does the Raven Mocker appear? Who employs the assassin?

For anyone needing more post-Mardi Gras medicine, here's a line by Robert Earl Keen, Jr. "The road goes on forever and the party never ends."

STRIKE PRICE, Mardi Gras, and Cherokee

Laissez le bon temps roulez. Still rolling in NOLA....

Today's the fourth day of the five-day release party for STRIKE PRICE. The Cherokee language and culture informs this thriller, so today's literary lagniappe is a link to a Cherokee-language radio show, part of a comprehensive Cherokee nation website. http://www.cherokee.org/News/RadioShow.aspx
