Radium Halos by Shelley Stout

Hi All--I'm announcing the publication of the ebook Radium Halos by Shelley Stout:

Radium Halos is a fictional story based on the true events of the Radium Dial Painters, a group of female factory workers who, in the early 1920s, contracted radiation poisoning from painting luminous watch dials with radium paint. Our narrator is Helen Waterman, a 65-year-old mental patient who worked at the factory when she was 16. She tells us her story through flashbacks, slowly revealing her past, the loved ones she’s lost, and the dangerous secrets she’s kept all these years

You can read the first chapter, read my own review, and purchase the book in several formats (epub, pdf, Kindle, lit, pdb) at the following address:
http://girlebooks.com/ebook-catalog/.../radium-halos/

There is a 20% discount code SSRH20 we're running through the month of July. We also have plenty of free ebooks at the site, so come on over!

Thanks,
Laura

Shelley, I wandered over to girlebooks and purchased the ePub version of your book. I have to admit, I am very intrigued by the blurb and look forward to some free time so I can start reading.

Thank you for making it available in more than one format.
