Spring
is a great time to be in Michigan!
We're going to
enjoy every minute of it - visiting places all over the state talking about Dead Lock, meeting with book
clubs and signing books at libary events and stores.
We'll be in the Soo for Engineers' Day, signing books
at Les Townsend's Island Book Store at 10:30 a.m. on June 29th. And we'll give a presentation on the writing
and research of Dead Lock during the Sailabration event at the Soo the first weekend in August. Our time is
Saturday afternoon. More details as they're available.
If you'd
like to invite us to your book club meeting or event, drop us an email at this site.
Thanks
to all for the kind words regarding Dead Lock. It was fun researching and writing the novel, and it's rewarding
to know people are enjoying the story.
The March issue of the popular Traverse Magazine contains an article
on the Soo during WWII, written by yours truly. Pick up a copy if you'd like to know more about the background behind
the novel. Sault Ste. Marie played an important role in our state's history, and it's a story in which every Michigan
resident can take pride.
We appeared on the Michigan Magazine TV Show earlier this year, talking
with Barry Stutesman. For a peek at the segment, go to YouTube and enter "B. David Warner".
I'm thrilled
to announce that an updated version of Freeze Frame will be published by Black Rose Writing early this summer.
For those who haven't read Freeze Frame, it takes place in modern-day Detroit as a terrorist group attempts
to elect their candidate President of the United States.
Thanks for joining us. Take a look around the site
- and check out the first chapters of Dead Lock if you haven't already read them.
And drop
me an email with any comments or questions.
Regards,
B. David
P.S.Both Freeze Frame and Dead Lock are available as Kindle books. And Dead Lock is waiting
for you in paperback.

While this is Dave Warner's
second novel, he's no stranger to the world of fiction, having written advertising copy for products from beers to banks
and from cars to candy bars. He's at home in virtually every medium from novels and television to radio, print, outdoor
and direct mail. He is even more at home in Clarkston, Michigan, where he lives with his wife, Marlene. Warner is a graduate
of Michigan State University, where he majored in advertising and journalism.
Northern Michigan has been my second
home for as long as I can remember. Camping with my family at Otsego State Park, visiting the Hawes at their Otsego Lake vacation
home, touring the U.P. to see Tahquamenon Falls, the Soo Locks and the courthouse where they filmed Anatomy of a Murder.
And finally, as a senior in high school, spending summer days at my parent's cottage near Gaylord. The cottage
now owned by my sister's family and mine.
I've grown to love the feel of pine needles and sandy soil beneath
my bare feet. Of campfires at lake side, staring up into a sky so filled with stars that they seem to blend together.
This is the north country I love so much that I had to set part of my first novel there.

What if your bookstore doesn't
yet carry Dead Lock?
Tell them to order a copy for you. Dead Lock is available through their normal distribution channel:
Ingram.

We visited the Visitors
Center at the Soo Locks for some last minute fact-checking for Dead Lock, Dave's new novel. It's out now
- you'll find it at bookstores and on Amazon.com. If your local bookstore doesn't have Dead Lock,
tell them to order it.
Lifelong friends help make our time even more enjoyable -- whether it's golf, dinners or just relaxing over a cold drink or
a hot toddy.
