Having a mini squee to see Sharp Turn listed in the new Allen and Unwin catalogue (see page 2). It’s available with a Take Our Word For It poster!

SHARP TURN

Marianne Delacourt

Tara Sharp, is back in a fun, kick-arse form with an adventure that Janet Evanovich fans will love!
Tara Sharp is at it again. After all the excitement of Sharp Shooter, Sharp Turn sees Tara Sharp’s unorthodox
investigative business starting to attract customers—though not necessarily of the right kind … So it’s a relief when
the man of Tara’s dreams, Nick Tozzi, lines her up with a real job. Something is rotten in the local motorbike racing
industry and an associate of Nick’s has asked him to see if Tara is willing to try and sniff out the bad egg … Tara’s new
assignment guarantees she’s tangled in all kinds of trouble!
Marianne Delacourt is the pseudonym of a successful fantasy author. She lives in Brisbane, Queensland.

My Supanova round up is over at the MDP site, but I would like to add how thrilled I was to see that Allen and Unwin had a stall at the expo, displaying their graphic novels and illustrated works. I got the opportunity to meet Liz, Erica and Chris and enjoyed talking to them. Also met the talented Nicki Greenberg who has illustrated a graphic novelisation of The Great Gatsby. Amazing stuff!

This was spotted in the Crime Round-up by Jeff Popple:

“Providing a lighter side to the PI formula is Sharp Shooter (Allen & Unwin, $29.99) by Australian author Marianne Delacourt. Introducing unemployable, 20-something, ex-private school girl Tara Sharp, Sharp Shooter is the first Australian crime novel to successfully venture into Janet Evanovich territory and is a good fun read from beginning to end.”

Plus a great big author piccie!

Things are hotting up in the Tara Sharp Facebook department. Lots of people signed up overnight (thank you all!) and I’ve just had an interview with ABC online about it. I’ll be setting up a page here on the blog which will explain what I’m trying to achieve and why I’ve done it. That will be up over the weekend. So if you’re interested but not sure, have a read and be convinced :)
