Last week I began a series of posts showcasing the
rebranding of the Anastasia Pollack Crafting Mini-Mysteries, beginning with Crewel Intentions. Today I’m featuring the second novella in the series,
Mosaic Mayhem.
A few years ago author Lois Winston spent some time
in Barcelona, and I tagged along—at least in my imagination and through her
keyboard. However, Lois being Lois, she couldn’t let me enjoy the brief vacation.
No, she went and had me kidnapped!
Really, is that any way to treat a protagonist?
At first, I was super excited. This was to be a
romantic getaway. Zack has been hired to photograph the various architectural
wonders created by Antoni Gaudi, and he invited me along for the three-day
photo shoot. At the time my only worries were whether my passport was still
valid and arranging care for my semi-invalid Communist mother-in-law.

Well…so much for a romantic getaway. Lois had other
ideas. Within hours of touching down in
Barcelona, I found myself in Parc Guel, staring down the barrel of a nasty
looking gun. (Then again, any gun pointed at me is nasty looking as far as I’m concerned!) Then
after being tossed into the back of a van and whisked off to parts unknown, I
had to convince a Spanish crime syndicate they’d kidnapped the wrong person.

Thanks a lot, Lois!
Why
is she so compelled to have people on both sides of the Atlantic try to kill me?
Obviously, I made it out of Barcelona alive because you’re reading about it
here, but if you’d like to know how I managed to escape, you can read about my
adventure in Mosaic Mayhem.

I like this cover, Lois!
Thanks so much, Vicki!
Anastasia, you wouldn't know what to do with yourself if you didn't have Lois (smile!).
I don't know, Angela. A warm beach and a cool, fruity "umbrella" drink come to mind. ;-)
