Summer of Long Knives Blog Tour Wrapup

So the last review is in, this one coming from Musings of a Bookish Kitty:

Overall, I quite enjoyed Jim Snowden’s The Summer of Long Knives. There is nothing light about this mystery thriller.  It is very dark, and well it should be given the time period and place in our history. I was swept up in Rolf’s life and investigation, anxious to see justice brought to the killer, while at the same time sad knowing the fate of the country, of the war to come and the many more injustices that would occur in the meantime.

This blog tour’s been a pleasure. These bloggers push and contrive to build an audience for new work. It’s a thankless job that seldom pays (a situation I’m in touch with). I salute them for their labor, even those who considered my book to be labor, and I hope to hear from them again the next time I have a book out.
