Excerpt from Twenty-four Days

Posted on February 24, 2021 by Jacqui Murray • 40 Comments

A good efriend, Liz Gauffreau, mentioned in a comment that she enjoyed the snippets writers share from their own writing. It reminded me I pretty much never do that. And she’s right–if people don’t know what my writing is like, why would they risk the time to read the novel? So, I’m going to share … Continue reading →

Twenty-four Days–FREE!

Posted on June 20, 2017 by Jacqui Murray • 50 Comments

One-day free promotion of my new military/tech thriller, Twenty-four Days. A former SEAL, a brilliant scientist, a love-besotted nerd, and a quirky AI have twenty-four days to stop a terrorist attack. The problems: They don’t know what it is, where it is, or who’s involved. It has 4.8 stars on Amazon, but is it worth … Continue reading →
