It's been too long, but Dulcie Schwartz will be back soon (Sept. in the U.S.) with INTO THE GREY. Isn't this a beautiful cover?

Thank you, L&S Reviews (four stars!)
Long and Short Reviews says the nicest things about "When Bunnies Go Bad": "Clea Simon does an excellent job of mixing humor, romance, and mystery into one coherent and exciting tale. The humans are engaging and fun, but the non-human characters are even more so..." Read the full review here.

Yay! "AS DARK AS MY FUR" is on!
Just got the official notice from my editor, who calls this sequel to "The Ninth Life" "an atmospheric, suspenseful and absorbing read, and ...richly detailed and imagined." Look for it in Dec. 2016 in the UK/April 2017 in the US.
