Well, dang.
After an additional read-through — on top of the revisions, polish pass, and proofread — I uploaded the final files this morning for Sinister Snare‘s October 10 launch, only to discover that the placeholder file I’d uploaded last year had gone live on Google Books over the summer. I’m not sure how that happened, but I heartily apologize to the readers who bought what they thought was a new book, only to find the interior from Tainted Treasure serving as a placeholder! The book wasn’t supposed to be live at all, but had been created in Google’s system as a pre-order for October.
I don’t know how to reach out to readers to remedy this. All I can say is that the final (and real) Sinister Snare files are available on Google now — even though this is still supposed to be a pre-order! So Google readers get the new book first, I guess, after this unintentional headache (no pun intended. IYKYK).
