"Gotham City", P.E.I.? - Holy Batman, Robin!!!

Acorn Press and Finley Martin have launched his new book "The Reluctant Detective"

This new book may present a challenge to Prince Edward Island's Image of "The Gentle Island". It is featured on the website "Crime Writers of Canada" in paperback format while indicating that eBook format is TBA.

Here is an excerpt from the website...

"Don't expect the charm of Green Gables or quaint fisherman's shacks in this page-turning thriller set on PEI. The Reluctant Detective takes a giant step closer to Gotham City than it does to Avonlea when Anne Brown tackles two ruthless competitors after a prize she controls -- a million dollar valise!"

Karl MacKeeman Work Featured At Montague Gallery

Karl MacKeeman

"ARTSpace East, located in the Centre for Performing ARTS, 239 Valleyfield Road, in Montague is featuring the artistic works of Karl MacKeeman through to the end of June. This collective work can be seen daily from noon to 6pm at the gallery.
Karl MacKeeman is originally from Kings County, his family having moved to Montague from Halifax, where his father ran the local barber shop on Main Street and his mother worked at the Kings County Memorial Hospital. Mr MacKeeman showed an interest in art at a very early age, all throughout his school years, and later pursued secondary education graduating from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design (NSCAD) in 1972 majoring in painting and print making (etching and lithography)."
