'A Numbers Game' by R J Dark is the best crime novel I have read recently, it has a kitchen sink reality to it, but also the thrills and mischief you need in a novel that is not meant to be taken too seriously. Out now My SFBook.com review sfbook.com/a-numbers-ga... @daturabooks.bsky.social

I went to the nearest Barnes & Noble and awkwardly explained to someone at the help desk that I had a new book out and asked where it might be (it's genre fluid) and it was faced out (!) Then she took some pictures, had me sign their books, and said they'd already sold a copy. A win/win/win.
