It was on a Saturday at Borders Books, my favorite store, that I met Harry Dolan. He was the Author of the day for book signing and to meet the public. I was getting ready to leave the store. I had my books bought and paid for when I heard the announcement that Harry Dolan will be meeting with the public in 10 minutes.
I had never heard of Mr. Harry Dolan before but I was excited because I was in a position to stay and meet a real live author that had his book published and I could hear his story and ask questions. I debated a moment but decided to stay. When will I ever get another chance like this? I was very glad I stayed.
What I didn’t know was that I would be the only person in the audience that day. I was nervous to meet him face to face but Mr. Dolan and his lovely girlfriend sat with me and we had a very nice conversation.
I was very impressed. Harry Dolan was very approachable. He is very gentle and soft spoken, happy to talk about his work and once he found out I was a writer, he actually asked questions about me, He asked what I was working on and we discussed being a writer and our favorite authors. I really had a nice time. I went and bought the book and he signed it for me. My first and only author signed book. (Yeah)
While I was at the store with Harry and after I purchased the book, I read the first chapter. The first chapter set the pace for the rest of the book. As with my usual reviews, I don’t say anything about the book plot. I want you to read it for yourself, but I will say that I was guessing at who the killer was until the very end. Harry did a fantastic job at all the twist and turns and kept the reader wondering until the final revelation. Even then there was guessing.
The other day I was in the book store again, getting more books, and stopped off in the small café to sit for a moment to take a look at the new books I just purchased. Across from me was a woman looking at Harry Dolan’s book ‘Bad Things Happen.’ I resisted the urge to tell her to buy it because she already looked quite enthralled.
I loved the book and look forward to other Harry Dolan books in the future. Get yours today.
