... New York City? Then yes, this Wednesday evening I'll be at the Mysterious Bookshop along with the legendary Lawrence Block, the mysterious Megan Abbott, and the quizzical Q.R. Markham. (6:30 p.m., 58 Warren Street, 212-587-1011).
... Houston, Texas? Again, you're in luck! This Friday night I'll be at Murder By the Book signing with Christa Faust, who's out supporting her latest novel, Choke Hold. Interestingly, director/activist Michael Moore will be at another store, pretty much one block away, the same night. So if you're in town for the Moore thing at 5, wander down the street at catch us at MBTB. (6:30 p.m., 2342 Bissonnet Street, 888-4-AGATHA).
... Milwaukee, Wisconsin? Damn straight, skippy. I've been invited to take part in Murder and Mayhem in Muskego 7 along with Megan Abbott (who I suspect will be reallll tired of me by then), Tasha Alexander, Dana Cameron, Joelle Charbonneau, Sean Chercover, John Connolly, Hilary Davidson, Alison Gaylin, Andrew Grant, Tony Hays, Gar Anthony Haywood, Jess Loury, Gary Phillips, Stefanie Pintoff, Marcus Sakey, Tom Schreck, Kelli Stanley, Martyn Waites and Jeri Westerson. (Tickets still available! Check the website for details.)
... New Hope, PA? Hellz yeah! I'll be at Farley's Bookshop the afternoon of Saturday, November 19. More details soon. (44 South Main Street, 215-862-2452.)
... Joliet, Illinois? Nope, sorry! Hey, I can't be everywhere at once.
Hope to see some of you out on the road. And if not, I do hope you'll pick up a copy of Hell & Gone, which is available in finer bookstores (and e-emporiums) right this very second.

We're leaving town on Friday, so we'll have to miss your signing at MBTB. Sorry about that. Would love to see you do your act with Christa.
You should take Megan to Farley's, Her father is from New Hope and her parents met there. She spent many an hour in there as a kid looking at their great selection of books.
Have a great trip!!
No San Antonio? I am crushed! Though I did read HELL AND GONE and really loved it. Not where I was expeccting itn to go. Now waiting for third book! Waiting...
I'll see you at the Mysterious Bookshop.
My wife works in the area.
I recommend Biddy Early's pub for Guinness and burgers, around the corner.
Bill: Sorry you guys won't be there! Safe travels.
Patti: I'll certainly mention it to her. I always forget about your Philly roots...
Scott: So glad you enjoyed it. I do wish I were headed back to San Antonion. (Say hi to Sandi for all of us.)
Mr. Pluck: See you there!
And still no Minneapolis. I give up.
Finally a place nearby, I'll see you in New Hope.

This was the first Loreena CD I got, after hearing "The Mummer's Dance" on the radio. With each subsequent listen over the course of the last several years, I find myself loving this disc more and more. The music has more of a Middle-Eastern texture than most of her earlier work, and the sound quality is, in my opinion better as well, allowing the listener to hear Loreena's glorious voice like never before.
