Riddles… the big reveal is today<\/h2>\n

Was this one of those riddles that has driven you mad trying to come up with solution? Or are you a riddles\u00a0aficionado\u00a0 and able to figure it out right away?<\/p>\n

Are you ready for the solution? I’ll go over the clues one last time.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Clue #1<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"

The building pictured above is the Rannes Hall<\/strong> in Kennethmont, Aberdeenshire, Scotland<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Clue #2<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

\"a<\/a>of course you recognize my book cover…<\/p>\n

and finally…<\/p>\n

Clue #3<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

\"Aug<\/p>\n

Take a really close look at the heading on the calendar page… August 2013<\/strong>. It’s in the future. It’s not here yet. Okay, my book is a time-travel but that’s not it.<\/p>\n

So without any further ado, may I have a drum roll, please…<\/p>\n

\"drummer\"<\/p>\n

Are you ready for the answer? Should I make you stew any longer? No. I won’t do that. I couldn’t be that mean to my loyal blog followers.<\/p>\n

I will be in Scotland in August 2013 and on the 17th, I’ll be hosting a book launch for A Shadow in the Past<\/strong> at the Rannes Hall<\/strong> in Kennethmont!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Isn’t that brilliant? I can hardly wait for my feet to touch good old Scottish terra firma. It’s been way too long since I was last there.<\/p>\n
