If I was allowed only one word to describe Cathi Stoler’s just released novella, Nick of Time, that word would be slick. Nick Donohue is the kind of guy my mother would have called debonair. He knows his way around the finer establishments of Europe better than I know my way around my tiny apartment. He dresses perfectly for every occasion. He always knows the right thing to say. To top it off, Nick’s a sap for a pretty girl but he doesn’t let his involvement with her and her problems prevent him from jumping in to help his brother when serious financial issues arise.
This is a fast paced story giving the reader barely time to take a breath as Nick moves from crisis to crisis. And, at novella length, it is handy to have around during this busy season when you really don’t have time to re-read War and Peace. (You did read it at least once, right?)
If having a brand new novella written by one of the Women of Mystery isn’t exciting enough, I have to tell you that Nick of Time was produced and published by Glenmere Press, a snazzy new imprint that is dedicated to working closely with the authors it accepts for publication. And the best news is, TA DA, Glenmere Press is owned and operated by none other than Woman of Mystery Lois Karlin. You can click here to check out the Glenmere website.
So there you have it. Two Women of Mystery and a really charming man. Lest you think I haven’t described Nick properly, I’ll let him tell you:
“I’m Nick Donohue, citizen of the world, gambler by trade.”
What more do you need to know?
