Atomic Sunset Has Landed!

This is an adult mystery title (writing as J.G.Macdonald) Iām thrilled to announce thatĀ Atomic Sunset is officially live! This book has been a labor of love (and mystery⦠and maybe a touch of radioactive soda). Itās set in a strange little desert town along Route 66, where the sunsets are suspicious, the locals are quirky, and thereās definitely something humming under the surface.If you enjoy cozy mysteries with a retro twist ā think coyote footprints, motel gossip, and government secrets ā I hope youāll check it out.Itās available now in Kindle and paperback, with the audiobook hopefully not far behind.Thanks...
