Briefly, I spent the past three years writing and researching this mystery novel set in San Francisco. The plot and characters are entirely fiction, interwoven with some of the city’s history and traditions.
Read more here for the book description or go to the Books by Jet Eliot tab above.
Next week and in the weeks to follow I will be featuring highlights of San Francisco sites as mentioned in the book, here on my blog.
You will not only find posts with iconic San Francisco vistas, but also posts about the writing of the book.
So if you have a question about my writing process–the tools I use, how I write, or research, etc.–I am happy to answer your questions. Just shoot me an e-mail via the Contact tab (above) or ask in the comments below.
I have spent hundreds of hours in the past three years on San Francisco hills, street corners, and shorelines–taking notes, listening and observing, attending tours and events.
A former San Francisco resident for 13 years and a monthly visitor, I have really enjoyed creating this story and sharing the spirit of this lively and diverse city.
Whether you read books or not, with the holidays around the corner surely there is someone you know who would enjoy a good page-turning mystery.
It is a joy and honor to share this book with you.

You should add the Amazon link here too https://www.amazon.com/Golden-Gate-Graveyard-Lamington-Mystery-ebook/dp/B01M336EV3/ref=sr_1_sc_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1478885365&sr=8-1-spell&keywords=goldengate+graveyard+jet+eliot I can’t wait to read it.
Thanks Sherry. Amazon’s royalty compensation to authors is minimal, which is why I’ve provided the publisher’s link. But I do realize Amazon is convenient, so I am adding that link as well. Either way, I know you will enjoy the book.
I have a kindle reader on my phone so I need their format.
I have found Amazon to pave the way for Kindle avenues (though I am not familiar with the phone app).
I used to use a Kindle but now only use the phone app to read books.
Congratulations and all the best for your new book!
My thanks, Dina, for your kind words and congrats!
Congratulations – your book has been purchased, downloaded and now awaiting reading!
Oh Joanne, so lovely to hear. Thanks for buying Golden Gate Graveyard — I know you will enjoy it.
Yea!!! Can’t wait to dig in to it! I know it will be captivating… with intrigue as well as fascinating information about San Francisco! Kudos to you, Jet!
I am so happy to hear your enthusiasm, dear Nan, and I know you will like it. Many thanks for your ongoing support and kindness.
Absolutely thrilled for you, Jet! Looking forward to reading it, will be taking a paperback copy on one of our weekend cabin trips this winter.
Congratulations from both of us!
My deep thanks to you, PC, and Mrs. PC, for your great support and readership. I know what big readers you both are, and I know the hills we have traversed together in this marvelous city. Enjoy!
congratulations Jet. I can’t wait to get my copy 🙂
Many thanks, Lola — I know you will enjoy it. Have a great weekend.
Reblogged this on Crea 2010.
Thank you for the re-blog Bertie!
Congratulations Jet!! Great news. Just bought the e-book and looking forward to reading it!
I am certain you will like it, Bertie, and it will no doubt bring back memories of when you were in SF. Many thanks for your purchase, re-blog, and warmth.
I look forward to reading your books! Do you recommend starting with the first in the series or do they stand alone?
Both books are stand-alones, bbb. They have the same protagonist, and both books provide adequate background on the characters, so there is no real order you have to follow. Thanks for asking, and thanks for reading–enjoy!
Congratulations and much success!
Thank you so much, Laura. As a Bay Area resident, I think you’ll find lots of familiar places in the book; and maybe a bit of history you were never privy to.
Exciting! Way to go, Jet. I always enjoy your posts which are chock full of great info (and beautiful photos). I look forward to reading both of your adventures by the end of of the year. Cheers!
My humble thanks, Shannon. I always appreciate our exchanges and comments, thanks so very much.
Jet this is fantastic news! Congratulations and good luck. I love the setting, and mysteries. What a great combination. Mega hugs!
As a fellow writer I know you know what goes behind a big work like this, and I so appreciate your supportive words and visit. Mega thanks and hugs, Teagan.
Excellent news. Congratulations!
Thanks very much, Belinda~~
Yay! Can’t wait to get my copy! What a fun thing to be able to say I ‘know’ the author! I might see if our local library wants to order a copy for their shelves.
It’s a fun story, Gunta, I know you will like it. My thanks for your encouraging words~~
Congratulations and I will soon be reading the Golden Gate Graveyard. I’m looking forward to your future posts about the writing of the book and would definitely like to read about your writing process.
I really appreciated your feedback here, ACI; and I look forward to hearing your questions and any feedback you have on the book. But most importantly, have fun with the story — it’s about diversity and tolerance, and from what I know about your photos and activities, I know you will like it.
Congratulations.
Thanks Craig~~
congratulations, dear Jet!
i look forward to hearing
of your success
& reading this
deep mystery 🙂
Your kind words are most appreciated, David. I wrap my stories into the package of a mystery novel, but really they’re about diversity and tolerance and being human. I think you, or your mystery-reading partner, will enjoy it. As always, a pleasure to hear from you~~
My wife read it and said it was great!!!– so I can’t wait to read it!!!
Thanks
And I am looking very forward to your reading of it too, Bill. At this point it’s faster and more direct to buy the paperback version from the publisher (see link here), because Amazon takes longer to link up indie writers and process lesser-known authors’ books. For digital version, either the publisher or Amazon are good, but Amazon is technologically simpler. Enjoy! Link for buying GGG paperback or digital:

What a privilege it is for me to purchase your book, Jet. Congratulations, I shall look forward to reading this exciting mystery! The lovely posts that I so enjoy are such a delight to read too. Thank you for sharing them together with Athena’s wonderful photography. Good on you, Jet… keep the good work!
Oh Iris, your kind words of encouragement are so appreciated. Thank you so much. I know you will enjoy it!
It’s my pleasure, Jet … Keep up the good work. 🙂
Many congratulations Jet, I’ve ordered my copy – love the title!
woo-hoo! Thanks so much for buying my book, Andrea — I know you will like it.
Congratulataions Jet! Will buy and download to my tablet later today. Looking forward to the read.
What a delight that is to hear, Sue. I think it will be especially enjoyable for you to read prior to your upcoming SF trip, there’s lots of city scenes and history. Have fun!
Sounds great Jet. I’m sure you have been anxious to see it finished and now actually is!
Congratulations and good luck
Thanks so much for your encouraging words, Eddie — and your ongoing interest. The writing of it was a joy (most of the time), but the marketing and selling of it is not my forte, and yes, there have been anxious moments (an understatement). I appreciate your kindness~~
Congratulations! All the best. Did you see my review of your novel Wicked Walkabout on my blog?
Well that is certainly exciting. No, I hadn’t seen it…but I am on my way there now, Carol. Thank you (I think). 😉
How exciting. Very best of luck with the book, Jet. RH
Thanks so much, RH, for sharing in the excitement. I know you know how it feels to finally finish the book. Warm thanks~~
Lovely post! I enjoyed reading😊
Thanks so much, TiL — I appreciate your visit and comment.
