About the Book:

Blood on the Chesapeake—Wilshire, Maryland seems like the perfect shore town on the Chesapeake Bay—quiet, scenic, charming—and promises Darrell Henshaw a new start in life and a second chance at love. That is, until he learns the town hides an ugly secret. A thirty-year-old murder in the high school. And a frightening ghost stalking his new office. Burned by an earlier encounter with the spirit world—with the OCD scars to prove it—he does NOT want to get involved. But when the desperate ghost hounds him, Darrell concedes. Assisted by his new love, he follows a trail that leads to the civil rights movement, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and even the Klu Klux Klan. Then, when two locals who try to help are murdered, Darrell is forced to decide if he’s willing to risk his life—and the life of the woman he loves—to expose the killers of a young man he never knew.

  1. Last year when we launched BLOOD ON THE CHESAPEAKE, the first novel in my series, the Haunted Shores Mysteries, we worked with marketing consultant, Maryglenn McCombs. Through her, I contributed a blog post for your blog. Thanks in part to your site, the launch was quite successful and the novel has gained critical acclaim including 5 star ★★★★★ reviews from five national review sites and two national awards and plenty of readers. The publisher, the Wild Rose Press, is releasing the second entry in the series, CRIMSON AT CAPE MAY this summer even amid this pandemic chaos and we are working with a new marketing team to launch the novel. Because of the impact your blog had on our marketing efforts the first time around, I’m reaching out to see if you’d have an interest in me contributing a new blog post for the CRIMSON. Thanks for your consideration and I look forward to hearing from you. randyoverbeck@authorrandyoverbeck.com
