Weekly Highlights (Dec 4th – 10th)
After a brief hiatus due to some pesky website glitch goblins, The Blair Partnership’s weekly highlights are back! Things are settling down a little as the holidays approach, but there is still plenty of exciting things happening at TBP.
Books Published
On the 7th of December, Ruth Kelly’s outstanding, twisty thriller, THE ESCAPE, was published in paperback! Ruth’s second thriller has already been making waves with its earlier digital publication, but with its paperback publication, there are some very exciting things happening… All will be revealed in the Celebrations section below!
