The Secret Diary of Alice in Wonderland, Age 42 and Three-Quarters became available on Kindle on March 10. It has been doing fantastically well, thanks in part to the launch support from my fans on Authonomy. Please visit my Amazon Kindle page to see Alice proudly up for purchase.

The book can be downloaded to a Kindle, an iPod and now I believe a computer also.
And it's only 3.99. :)

With love & laughter!

A murder by beheading sends Alice Harte, reluctant real estate broker for thugs, running into the arms of Nigel Channing, a charming British con man.


Published on Kindle and doing great!

This urban fantasy is set in Miami and London. Fans of Stephanie Plum will cheer for Alice as she watches her back in attempts to keep her head while being stalked by Nigel's daft ex-wife and a team of inept, but dangerous, mobsters. Alice's world is filled with real characters strangely reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland as she's guided through her wild adventure by her own Cheshire Cat.

Nigel whisks Alice to England. A chubby John Cleese with serious dress-code problems, Alice sees him as her White Rabbit rescuer.

After Alice discovers a gangster's freshly beheaded body in his Miami mansion, she launches a barely competent self-defense in a kangaroo court. The main witness against her is Algy Green, a bumbling cockney swindler who super-glues his bat wing ears to his head, and commits perjury for theme park tickets. But in the middle of the trial, a small piece of information opens her eyes. She realizes she can take the whole corrupt circus down. She sucks it up and kicks eveyone's butt.

Cyndi, You're killing me! I have so much reading and so very much writing to do and then I come across Between and I'm stopped dead in my tracks. Your writing is absolutely amazing.

I gulped as I stepped up to read His Pride, Her Prejudice as I was thinking... 'oh no not again.' But this read is different. It's clear, crisp and not derivative. I really enjoyed the story. The voice is contemporary and yet does draw the reader back in time. I enthusiastically back this book. Wor... view book
