Gibsons, CA -- (SBWire) -- 01/27/2015 --Blair McDowell announces the release of her latest novel, "Romantic Road," a thriller with unexpected twists and turns, an exciting romance and some humour for good measure.

Marlene Harris of ReadingReality.net writes: "If you enjoy edge-of-your-seat suspense with a heart-pounding romance wrapped around a story that also makes you think, read 'Romantic Road' or any of Blair McDowell's marvelous stories."

The signature touch in all of McDowell's books is her use of exotic settings as an integral part of the story, almost like another well drawn character.  "Romantic Road" leads the reader on a whirlwind chase along Germany's famous Romantische Strasse through Austria to a shattering conclusion on the shores of Hungary's Lake Balaton.  Pursued by dangerous people in a desperate race through three countries, Lacy Telchev follows clues left to her by her late husband. Along the way she encounters Max, handsome and seemingly helpful, but is he friend or foe?  Who should she trust?  If Lacy fails to solve the mystery, if she trusts the wrong man, there could be deadly consequences.
