Today we're launching Gail's new mystery thriller novel Kangaroo Court! It's the story of a freelance online journalist/stay-at-home mom who investigates a character assassination on social media, and is Book 4 in the Media Mysteries series. Here's the detailed description: Character assassination on social media — Assault with a deadly weapon
 Along the rugged coast of central California, the intimate life of star quarterback Jesse Tuvornay has come into the crosshairs. 
 At the gym, shopping, crossing town in his SUV, or on a cozy date with his supermodel girlfriend—his every move is watched, documented, and posted. But this isn’t publicity—it’s violation. And the scandal is spreading faster than a virus.
 In this domestic suspense thriller from award-winning author Gail Hulnick, Jesse Tuvornay has become the target of a bitter social media troll. But when her friend, supermodel Iris Kendall, is dragged into the spreading swamp of online slime, journalist Chelan Montgomery steps in to uncover the source of this character assassination.
 Chelan can’t say no to Iris and Jesse. But how can she squeeze their case into her few free hours as she cares for her two babies?
 Step by step, Chelan inches closer to the identity of Jesse’s enemy. But can she move fast enough? Will the football star and the supermodel have to pay the price?
 When a new photograph appears to show the quarterback stepping way out of bounds on his night off, Jesse is ready to take matters into his own hands. Can Chelan untangle the threads and lure the troll out of the shadows before the star ruins his own career?
 If you loved Knives Out or Gone Girl, you’ll want to watch from the gallery as Kangaroo Court goes into session.

Last year, Gail Hulnick wrote a novel in thirty days - twice! November is National Novel Writing Month, and in November 2021, she wrote Sleeping Dogs Lie, which was published in January 2022 and is a finalist for a Royal Palm Literary Award. In April 2022, she signed up for Camp NaNoWriMo, which is run by the same organization and allows other forms of writing to be entered, and finished Kangaroo Court, which will be published in March 2023. 
Only ten to eleven percent of those who enter do finish the 50,000 word requirement and "win".

She put them together in this latest nonfiction book 100 Ways to Win NaNoWriMo. ​You can find it, in print and Ebook, on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Waterstones, and other bookstores and libraries that order through Ingram.
