New Releases - A New Feature

As you might have noticed last week, I'm trying out a new feature here on the Crime Fiction Dossier. Every Tuesday (it's usually on Tuesday) publishers release their latest books to stores. There are so many books published, though, that it can be hard to keep up with what's coming out and when.

So I'm going to compile a weekly list of the new books coming out that look the most promising or interesting to me. I'm not going to try to list everything, but I will list as many as seems practical. Naturally, I'm going to limit the list to mysteries, thrillers, suspense novels, and the like.

For now, I'm just going to be doing paper books (no ebooks) and just original publications (no reprints). We'll see how it goes. Maybe I'll expand that in the future.

If you're an author or publicist and have a book coming out in the next week, please send me an email with the following information:

• Author Name
• Book Title
• Publisher
• Format (Hardcover, Paperback, etc.)
• Link to Author Website

Please send in the email only a week or so in advance. If you send it in much more than that it's just going to complicate things. I apologize in advance if I can't list your book for one reason or another.

I'm going to try this out for a few weeks and see how it goes. Please spread the word!
