NEW GRAY WHALE INN MYSTERY ARRIVES THIS NOVEMBER! For those hungering for more Gray Whale Inn mysteries, the fourth installment, BERRIED TO THE HILT, will be released this November in a bookstore near you.  The new mystery features a centuries-old shipwreck, a murder of recent vintage -- and, of course, lots of delicious recipes.

Karen is currently working on a number of other intriguing projects; when she has more news, she will post it here.  In the meantime, please feel free to find her on Facebook, where she spends more time than she should.

Thanks to all those readers who nominated LEADER OF THE PACK for the Paranormal Excellence Award for Romantic Literature (P.E.A.R.L.); thanks to you, the book was a finalist in the 'Best Shapeshifter Romance' category.  Sophie and the gang were so excited!

IMPORTANT NOTE TO READERS: If you have e-mailed Karen and not received a response, it may be that yours was one of several e-mails that have 'vanished'.  Karen discovered this recently when her editor was unable to send an e-mail to her karen @ karenmacinerney.com account, and is working to retrieve lost e-mails and fix the problem.  If you have not heard back from Karen, please do resend those e-mails; she loves to hear from readers!
