Here’s a snippet from my just-released Crimson Christmas in which Arthur first sets eyes upon his potential mate–
I follow her finger, setting my eyes on the figure of a youngish man bent over the pages of a coffee table book of art. His hat rests on the table beside him, and I—I’m suddenly nervous. I recognize that curly mop from the drawing. I barely acknowledge Mimsy and Cora as they retreat back to the cubicle area with knowing smirks as I slowly approach him—he seems absorbed in the images he’s examining.
I finally get up the nerve to say something. “Excuse me? Mr. Cosgrove?” I blink as he raises his head from his book and meets my eyes, startled.
