Today’s Pub Day—short for Publication Day. It’s the day a book goes on sale worldwide and becomes available through major booksellers. Oceano Beach Bedlam—Book Two in the Thad Hanlon & Bri de la Guerra Mystery Series—is finally in print. I am so stoked! Feeling St.-Patrick’s-Day-lucky to take one step closer to becoming a real novelist with two books now published and Book Three close to final draft.

Kirkus Reviews—a trusted source in the literary world—calls the sequel to All that Glisters “A crunchy detective novel set in the world of California surfers” and states that “Jones delivers a proper beach read, both in form and content.”
