    Book: Whale Song
    Author: Cheryl Kaye Tardif (Edmonton, Alberta)

    Trafford mystery author Cheryl Kaye Tardif has signed a book deal with Kunati Inc. for the release of a ’special revised edition’ of her Whale Song. Whale Song has already wowed critics and fans. Writer’s Digest wrote: “A wonderfully well-written novel… Whale Song would make a wonderful movie.” A screenplay is in the works. With a stunning new cover, expanded text and a special dedication, the new Whale Song is sure to be a smash hit when it re-launches in January 2007. Tardif currently has two other titles with Trafford Publishing — Divine Intervention and The River.

    “Without my experiences with Trafford Publishing,” states Cheryl Kaye Tardif. “I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to prove that my books sell. I would recommend Trafford to anyone who is frustrated by rejection letters, yet still wants to fulfill his or her dream of having a book published. My experiences have been awesome and life-changing, and it was a thrill to see that Whale Song recently made Trafford’s Fiction Top Sellers. Moving to a traditional publisher is the next step for me, but I will never forget that it all started with Trafford Publishing.”
