As many of you know, Rises the Night was released last June. Almost a year ago.  People saw it all over the place–in the bookstores, in Walgreens and Walmart, in Kroger, and a variety of non-bookstore locations.

Now, all of a sudden, it's popping up again in non-bookstore locations.

And that's odd (but not upsetting) to me, since the books displayed in places like Walgreens and Kroger and Giant Eagle, etc., are swapped out at least on a monthly basis. They don't have a lot of space, so they have to swap out books quickly to keep new titles in. 

Curiously, in the last few weeks, I've heard from several people that they've seen Rises–one saw it in an airport in Florida, and someone else in a grocery store in PA (and she squealed quite loudly and announced to everyone in the vicinity that she knew me).

So do me a favor–take a peek at the book sections in non-bookstore locations in the next week or so and let me know if you see Rises anywhere. Just 'cause inquiring minds want to know. You can comment below with store and location, or email me directly.
