Phil Temples

My publisher has convinced me to go with the dark version of the cover art.  I had been leaning with a white background, however the green text stands out better against the black I think. 

It won’t be long now.  Estimated book publication date is April 21–eleven days from now.

I received two additional blurbs for the cover of my upcoming scientific mystery-thriller “The Allston Variant.” Many thanks to Greg and Luke for their kind words:

“The Allston Variant, Phil Temples’ frighteningly plausible new novel, enthralls with its breathtaking pace and complex heroine, scientist/undercover agent Carrie Bloomfield, while elucidating the latest advances in biotechnology. A smart, steamy thriller!  —Gregory Wolos, author of Women of Consequence and Turnpike

“Thrillers are my guilty pleasure, and The Allston Variant is the guiltiest of guilty pleasures.  Temples not only spins an excellent yarn, he can write!” —Luke Salisbury, author of The Answer Is Baseball and No Common War

I couldn’t resist reposting this. There’s a scene in The Allston Variant where the two main protagonists visit Sullivan’s on Castle Island.  https://www.wcvb.com/article/sullivans-castle-island-in-south-boston-opening-for-season-on-friday/26539709#

I’m excited to announce the official book launch for “The Allston Variant”, the second in the Carrie Bloomfield Novel series, will happen on Saturday, May 11, 2019 from 2-4 PM at New England Mobile Book Fair, 241 Needham St, Newton Upper Falls, MA. Light refreshments will be served.
