Anne Perry

March 2, 2018 :: in Comments Off on Anne Perry

I’ll be in Nashville, Tennessee August 24 for a mystery writers conference called Killer Nashville. I have been selected as a panelist for a session on how to write historical fiction. My only other co-panelist if Ms Anne Perry. My first book comes out this October. She has over fifty books in print. I think the attendees will get a broad spectrum of experience between the two of us. I’ve written her and she was very gracious. I think I’ll learn a lot, if no one else does, though hopefully someone in the audience who is still struggling to get an agent or an acceptance from a smaller publisher, can see a little bit of themselves in my story, and be encouraged.

Gallery of Death

February 20, 2018 :: in Comments Off on Gallery of Death

Retired Military Pathologist releases first ebook story collection.
NOW AVAILABLE FOR REVIEW

Williamsburg/Virginia/USA/January 21, 2018 – Retired US Army Pathologist Dr. (COL) B. Harper shares three pieces of his work which each, in their own way, deal with Death: either avoiding it, or confronting it. Available at Smashwords and Amazon on February 19, 2018.

GALLERY OF DEATH is a twenty-page, 5,000-word story collection which begins with “Coyote,” where a Cherokee Plainclothes Detective has twelve hours to rescue a kidnapped woman and keep his spiritual nemesis, Coyote, at bay.

In “Homeward Bound,” two soldiers attempt to evade the enemy and a pending air strike to make their way to safety.

“Catrina” is a personal essay describing an actual death scene investigation Dr. Harper performed, and his struggle to overcome the sterility of clinical terminology to accurately convey his findings.

As a bonus, the book contains an excerpt from his upcoming novel, A Knife in the Fog, scheduled for release on October 2, 2018 by Seventh Street Books, a subsidiary of Prometheus Books.

B Harper MD retired as a US Army Pathologist with thirty-seven years of world-wide military/medical experience, ultimately as a Colonel/Physician in the Pentagon. He is completing an Associate Degree in Creative Writing at Full Sail University, and has been published in The Strand Magazine, and Flash Fiction Magazine. His first novel, A KNIFE IN THE FOG, involving Arthur Conan Doyle in the hunt for Jack the Ripper, is slated for release by Seventh Street Books in October of 2018. A member of the Authors Guild and Sisters in Crime, he is a regular contributor to the Sisters in Crime bi-monthly newsletter.
When not writing, Dr. Harper can be found working as a professional Santa Claus. A kindly sort, he only threatens those on the Naughty List with burnt cookies.

GALLERY OF DEATH is his first story collection.

Smashwords is a global ebook distributor serving authors, publishers, readers and major ebook retailers. They distribute books to Apple iBooks (51 countries), Barnes & Noble, Kobo (which powers the bookstores of multiple other retailers such as FNAC in France and WH Smith in the U.K.), OverDriveGardners, Baker & Taylor (Blio.com and the Axis360 library platform), and others.
