Hey Kevin I am looking through the new releases for May 2021 and you have Dean Koontz as the author of the Final Twist (Colter Shaw) but I believe its Jeffrey Deaver. Im sure you do this to see if anybody is paying attention
Yes, that’s my plan. Sure. (Off to bang my head against the wall now).
Hey Kevin I hope you’ve stopped banging your head long enough to fix the last name as well.I know you like things to be be accurate. Just so you know I love this site and I would have a hard time living without it.
In that case, you should definitely fill out our survey. I’ve been rolling this stone uphill for over twenty years, and I’d love to get some feedback.
I did fill it out . I follow you so when that post showed up in my inbox I did it then. I guess when you were in Montreal you were rolling a snowball
I wish. Montreal seems like a dream to me now.
