HUNTINGTON BEACH, CALIF.--Several of the country's top authors celebrated the opening of Mystery Ink
Bookstore by autographing their acclaimed new books on July 10th & 11th at 7176

Writer Barbara DeMarco Barrett, Martin J.Smith, Gary Phillips, Dan Duling
and Patricia McFall signed their thriller, "Orange County Noir;" Sheila Lowe,

Years ago, Mystery Ink, owned by the personable and very knowledgeable Debbie
Mitsch, used to be a popular store for thrillers and their readers in Laguna
Beach. Debbie decided to resurrect it in Huntington Beach.
The mystery bookstore makes the place a fun visit for readers and
giftbuyers. Debbie is so nice and has gone out of her way to create a
friendly, caring atmosphere that will make your visit enjoyable. I was so
impressed with Debbie Mitsch's personal relationship with so many bestselling
authors. They in turn said they'd do anything to help her store be a success.
Mystery Ink is open Monday through Saturday from 10 am to 4 pm and on some
Sundays for special events, such as the recent Author Signings. If you have any
questions please call Debbie Mitsch at: (714) 960-4000. Her e-mail address is:
