The snow piled up outside, but Madame Rosemary Aubert’s many fans and readers braved the elements to come to Sleuth Bookstore on Millwood Avenue in Toronto, to celebrate the release of her new Ellis Portal novel, Don’t Forget You Love Me.

On hand to share in the celebration were Alex and Donna Carrick of Carrick Publishing, which published Don’t Forget You Love Me. Visitors were treated to real English tea, party sandwiches, fruit, cheese and crackers, and cookies made to look like policemen! Sir Percival, the store’s resident poodle , sporting a new haircut, was also on hand to greet visitors in hopes of scoring a piece of cheese.

Visitors were able to chat with Rosemary, buy the books and get them signed and browse in the wonderful ambience of the mystery bookstore.

We’re thrilled that Rosemary has added another Ellis Portal mystery to the series. Dare we hope for more??
