US and UK giveaways!

9781481422123As you may have heard, Murder is Bad Manners (the American edition of Murder Most Unladylike) has been chosen by the ABA as one of its Indies Introduce picks for spring 2015. I can’t get over how brilliant this is – I am genuinely honoured, and a bit overwhelmed.

So, to celebrate this, I’m holding a special giveaway for my American and Canadian readers. Up for grabs is one copy of Murder is Bad Manners, not available in the USA until April 2015. The lucky winner will be able to read the book six months before the rest of North America – and I’ll even sign and personalise it (just don’t ask me to draw anything for you).

All you need to do is comment below with your favourite sweet treat (it could be cake, cookies, pie, candy or anything else) – as Hazel and Daisy will teach you, good detectives need to boost their little grey cells with regular bunbreaks.

The competition is now closed!

But I have something for UK fans as well! I’m currently blogging at Girls Heart Books, and the wonderful people at Random House have given me three copies of Murder Most Unladylike to give out as part of the GHB September giveaway. Head over to the site now to answer a question and put yourself into the running to win a copy of the book!
