RAB Publishes M/M Valley of the Dudes to Celebrate 50th Anniversary of Susann Classic

Riverdale Avenue Books has just released Valley of the Dudes by Ryan Field to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the groundbreaking classic, Valley of the Dolls.
       Lambda-award-winning author Ryan Field, who has been known for parodying heteronormative romance classics, explained his approach to writing his novel, “I'd always considered Valley of the Dolls a game-changer in publishing, pop culture, and in film. I've always believed it was part of the forefront of the sexual revolution, and it broke those proverbial grounds that lead the way for other books like it to enter the mainstream.”
       Field added, “I also think it’s a little ironic, if not symbolic, that the 50 year anniversary of Valley of the Dolls coincides so closely with the 50 year anniversary of the Gay Liberation movement. Valley of the Dolls and Gay Liberation were both part of an era that helped define sexuality and equality today.”
       Said Riverdale Avenue Books Publisher, Lori Perkins,” It’s amazing how relevant Susann’s classic remains today as we wade through the flood of celebrity worship and scandal that Susann predicted. Ryan’s re-imaging shows just how universal her vision was when it is brought forward 50 years and genders are changed, and it is still a powerful tale of the cost of fame and fortune.”

ReLaunching the Dagger Imprint with The Ripper Letter by Best-selling Author Katherine Ramsland




Riverdale Avenue Books is relaunching its Dagger mystery/thriller line with the publication of The Ripper Letter, the first novel in The Hearts of Darkness series by best-selling author and forensic psychologist Dr. Katherine Ramsland.


The dark thriller involves a missing letter penned by Jack the Ripper, a secret society of autopsy enthusiasts, an occult code and angels.


"When I learned that a letter once attributed to Jack the Ripper was missing from police files, I thought, 'What if it's missing for a supernatural reason?' This launched my search though ancient codes and biblical history to create a universe in which Jack the Ripper had elevated motives.” Explained Katherine Ramsland. “I used an actual Ripper suspect with occult leanings to entice my female detective into a dangerously erotic arena."


“I am so thrilled to be working with Kathie Ramsland on this exciting, unique paranormal murder series. It’s perfect for our list,” said Publisher Lori Perkins.


Dean Koontz called Ramsland’s Ghost: Investigating the Other Side, “The best book of its kind I’ve ever read,” and Publisher’s Weekly stated that “Ramsland is a master of foreboding.” Whitley Streiber found The Heat Seekers to be a “gem” and said, “Katherine Ramsland is a marvelous novelist, who approaches her subject with chilling, fascinating inner knowledge.”


The Dagger imprint will be publishing a mystery/thriller title every month with the next title being the second novel in the pop culture near future thriller Macroglint series, The Weekend at Prism by John Patrick Kavanagh.
