Authors Charles G. Irion and Ronald J. Watkins Present Murder on Kilimanjaro, the Grand Finale of the Summit Murder Mystery Series at Barnes & Noble

On Wednesday, November 14, 2012 at 6:30 PM authors Charles G. Irion and Ronald J. Watkins will be greeting fans of their Summit Murder Mystery series at Barnes & Noble at the 101 and Shea in Scottsdale, Arizona.  The signing will include a meet and greet with the authors, a chance to ask your burning questions about the Summit Murder Mystery series, and for fans to get their books signed!    

The Summit Murder Mystery series was inspired by the 1987 Everest attempt by co-author Charles G. Irion and later his 2011 Kilimanjaro climb. Each is an exciting murder mystery set against the back drop of the world’s astounding Seven Summits.  The series begins with the book Murder on Everest and continues with Murder on Elbrus, Murder on Mt. McKinley, Murder on Puncak Jaya, Murder on Aconcagua, Murder on Vinson Massif and ends with the grand finale Murder on Kilimanjaro.  Unlike any mystery ever previously written, you will actually feel yourself atop each mountain where deaths from altitude sickness, accidents, illness and fatigue are a matter of course, but when you add murder to the mix, you get a novel that is truly one of a kind.  The authors promise you will experience the thrill of the climb and the terror of every step.  

Irion says, “We are looking forward to celebrating the release of this exciting and dramatic novel that concludes our best-selling Summit Murder Mystery series. Ron and I are ecstatic about the release of this unforgettable finale and are looking forward to celebrating with our family, friends and fans.  For those that have yet to read the novels, all I need is a few minutes to tell you why this is a series you don’t want to miss!  Please come on out to the signing and celebrate with us!”

Meeting Dr. Andrew Weil M.D.

On Friday November 2nd, I met Dr. Andrew Thomas Weil, M.D.!  He is the founder, professor, and director of the Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona.  A very cool guy!  I gave him a copy of Roadkill Cooking for Campers when I saw him; he said he loves the cover.  I was thrilled to get his book, True Food: Seasonal, Sustainable, Simple, Pure.  

When Andrew Weil and Sam Fox opened True Food Kitchen, they did so with a two-fold mission: every dish served must not only be delicious, but it must promote the diner's well being. TRUE FOOD supports the same mission, with freshly imagined recipes that are seasonal, inviting, and easy to make. Showcasing fresh, high-quality ingredients and simple preparations with robust, satisfying flavors, TRUE FOOD demonstrates how easy it is to eat well at home. Very neat!

I thought it was only fitting that I give Dr. Andrew Weil a copy of my cookbook as well :)

New Book Review - Murder on Everest

Very excited to share this amazing review with you from The Indie Bookshelf of Murder on EverestMurder on Everest is the first book in the Summit Murder Mystery series.

In Murder on Everest when Derek Sodoc, only son of the world's richest and most powerful man dies attempting to climb Mt. Everest, questions are raised. Was it the mountain that sealed his fate? Or perhaps something more sinister?  After reading the book Abandoned on Everest that details Derek Sodoc's untimely death, Sodoc's father convinces the surviving expedition members to return to Everest - presumably to recover Derek's body. With billions at stake and a relentless father searching for someone to blame, everyone is a suspect. Set against the backdrop of the world's highest and deadliest mountain, Murder on Everest is filled with intrigue, sex, betrayal and mystery. It is unlike any murder mystery you've ever read.

Thank you very much to Janna Mashburn for reading and reviewing my novel.  I'm looking forward to getting you the other books in the series!

Janna's review -
 I have no desire to climb the tallest mountain in the world, but after reading this book, I have somewhat of  an idea of what a climber goes through. The authors of this book described the perils and experiences perfectly while adding a murder mystery to keep you guessing right until the very end. Both authors did a great job of explaining the terms used in the book so you weren't confused. Each scene was described so realistically, and I was really intrigued and amazed by some of the dangers these climbers experienced.



Now, on to the murder mystery part....this book has a murder and no one knows who did it. There is a prequel to this novel named 'Abadoned on Everest', but "Murder on Everest' references the prequels story so you are not confused. Scott Devlon is the main character, and he is back to help find the murderer of Dereck Sodoc. Devlon was the last one to see Derek before his death, and the characters in this story are on a mission to bring his dead body down from Everest.

I enjoyed all of the characters, there was such a melting pot of personalities, some adding comic relief and others drama. You really get a feel for each character's internal and external struggles while on the mountain. Physical strength is not the only component in these adventures, you must be able to endure much more than that.


I recommend this book to readers who love an adventure story with some mystery.
