There are some interesting things coming down the road in time for Christmas. First, I will be signing my books at Walter Baker Arena, 100 Malvern Dr., Nepean, Ontario on December 10 as part of a Christmas Craft Sale. The time is 10 – 4.

As a cyber treat, I Guess We Missed the Boat will be available for download for only .99 the week of November 28. If you don’t have a copy yet, this is your chance to grab one for almost nothing.

Speaking of for nothing, the cover for A Perilous Question has changed and as a Christmas gift to readers of my books, it will be available free on Kindle for a few hours on December 8. Get it while you can.

More treats will follow. Stay tuned.

And A Perilous Question was named solo “Medalist Winner” in the New Apple Literary Awards Suspense / Thriller category of the 2016 Summer eBook Awards!

The July issue of the online book review magazine “Small Press Bookwatch” features a review of “A Perilous Question”.

“Impressively well written and a consistently compelling thriller of a read from beginning to end, “A Perilous Question” showcases author Barry Finlay’s exceptional talents as an original and gifted storyteller who is able to keep his reader’s riveted attention from first page to last. While very highly recommended for community library General Fiction collections, it should be noted for personal reading lists that “A Perilous Question” is also available in a Kindle edition ($3.99).”

A Perilous Question is one of the featured books in the Crime Writers of Canada summer catalogue.
