EXCLUSIVE COVER REVEAL, GUEST POST and GIVEAWAY: Susan Laine, Author of 'The Disciple'
We at Kimmers' Erotic Book Banter are happy to host Susan Laine's new cover reveal for book four in her The Wheel Mysteries series, due out October 21, 2016.
Hi, I'm Susan Laine, the author of The Disciple, a gay murder mystery. Thank you kindly, Kimmers' Erotic Book Banter, for arranging this cover reveal and having me here today. There's also a giveaway, so I hope you will enter and perhaps leave a comment and tell us what you think about the idea of this tale.
I don't know about you readers, but I love a good murder mystery. One of my favorite authors, Robert van Gulik, wrote murder mysteries, and I adored each and everyone of them. As a gay romance writer, I also like to focus on realistic, established couples. Gus and Niall are engaged to be married, and exploring the continuing evolution of their relationship intrigues me. These are real men who love each other but don't always agree on everything. The excitement of murder cases is balanced by their mundane everyday lives.
This series, The Wheel Mysteries, has three books prior to this one. Mystery-wise they're standalones (witches, satanists, fortune-tellers); relationship-wise they're best read in order. Your call how best to approach the stories. In any case, thank you for stopping by to read this guest post. Happy readings and I hope you enjoy the ride!

BLURB:
Gus Goodwin witnesses a young man acting strangely at his occult shop—and a day later the same youth is found brutally murdered at a secluded Radical Faerie Sanctuary in the mountains. Gus and Niall Valentine, his private detective boyfriend, once again find themselves in the middle of a murder mystery.
First to cross their path is Professor Alex Kittridge, Gus’s ex-boyfriend. Then into the picture stumbles Autumnsong, the biggest enigma they’ve ever encountered, to complicate the already confusing case. As Gus and Niall try to decipher the meaning of the cryptic poems left at the murder scenes, their pasts not yet laid to rest put a strain on their relationship.
Gus and Niall must uncover a slew of secrets within a spiritual group of queer social rebels before the vile killer strikes again—or the investigation could very well end up being their last.
