\"LAHE<\/a><\/p>\n

That’s right! Just in time for Halloween! loveahappyending<\/a> and former Dundee Book Prize winning author Chris Longmuir<\/a> has officially launched a few of her titles that are guaranteed to send shivers up your spine!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Night Watcher by Chris Longmuir<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Night Watcher<\/strong> is a gritty crime story set in Dundee, Scotland. It’s about stalkers and their victims. I dare you to read it when you’re alone or at bed time. You’ll be sleeping with the lights on if you do!<\/p>\n

You can download Night Watcher<\/strong> at amazon.co.uk here<\/a> or at amazon.com here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Don’t despair if you don’t have a Kindle. Night Watcher is also available at Smashwords for a variety of platforms here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If a novel isn’t quite your cup of tea, then Chris can satisfy that niche, too. She’s recently put together two collections of short stories.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Her Ghost Train & Other Short Stories<\/strong> collection is a compilation of horror and suspense stories. Like Night Watcher<\/strong> it can be purchased at amazon.co.uk here<\/a>, amazon.com here<\/a> and Smashwords here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Her other short story collection, Obsession & Other Stories<\/strong>, is a compilation of crime and other stories – not as scary as Ghost Train<\/strong> but still enough to keep you looking over your shoulder.<\/p>\n

Like her other published works, Obesssion & Other Stories is available at amazon.co.uk here<\/a>, amazon.com here<\/a>, and at Smashwords here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Excerpts from both of Chris’s short story collections can be read here<\/a> if you dare…<\/p>\n

And if you’re looking for something less dark, a bit more genteel if you will, then Chris’s first novel, A Salt Splashed Cradle<\/strong>, \"\"<\/a>will fill that void. Set in the early 1800s, it’s a saga about the fisherfolk of north-east Scotland.<\/p>\n

A Salt Splashed Cradle<\/strong> is available from amazon.co.uk here<\/a>, amazon.com here<\/a>, and Smashwords here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Do check out Chris’s writing. You won’t be disappointed. And don’t forget to stop by her blog<\/a> and see what she’s up to. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
