Winter Heart, a novella starring Domina Frevisse, has been released for both the Kindle and the Nook! This is the first new story featuring Frevisse since The Apostate’s Tale in 2008 and to celebrate I’m going on a blog tour: Over the next two weeks, I’ll be making “appearances” on blogs all across the web with interviews, essays, and other fun stuff. My appearances will all be linked here from my home page, so if you subscribe to my feed, or follow me on Facebook, you’ll be able to keep track of me during the tour as it happens.
 | One man has been kidnapped. Another has been murdered. In the bleakest depths of winter, Frevisse finds her soul chilled with the heavy burdens of duty and responsibility. Even the warmth of charity is in short supply as the villagers of Prior Byfield turn against each in bloody feuds of greed and rage, weaving knots of treachery which even the clever Frevisse may find hard to unwind. Award-winning author Margaret Frazer gathers shadows around the hearth to tell a tale of frigid winter and icy passion. Join Frevisse in her fervent prayers for a true peace of mind and body as she pits all her forceful will against the most cunning of evils. Fear for the lives which may be destroyed in unlocking the secrets of the winter heart... |
THIS IS THE END…
My Winter Heart Blog Tour is coming to its end, and I can’t believe how much fun I’ve had. As an author, I cheerfully spend most of my time alone, immersed in my work. Over the years, signings and suchlike have drawn me out only occasionally. So this venture into the cyber-world has been an adventure. Thank you, one and all, for sharing it with me.
