Death Along The Dee
Well, given the success of last year's novel, Blood Among The Threads, I was persuaded to write a sequel.
Yes, Alfred and Ettie Palmer are back for another stunning standalone Victorian mystery.
Wrexham, 1884. Eight years earlier they’d been warned never again to interfere with police business. But it seems their skills are needed once more. A body deliberately drowned but left abandoned on the ban Read more of this blog post »

Moonlight and Mischief (Mysteries of Moonlight Manor Book 1):

"The house seemed to have a mind of its own, but I was determined to prove that I was stronger than any rumors, superstitions, or ghost stories." This, in true Molly Fitz/ Trixie Silvertale fashion is a great story. Sydney,a high end advertis" Read more of this review » |

“Is it not fear that drives atrocity? It is natural enough to hate our enemies. Of course it is. How could anybody kill another person unless they had learned to hate them? But when you are afraid of them too, terrified by them rather, isn’t that when atrocity begins? Scared beyond reason. We call it the Terror always. For you it’s the Red Terror. For the Republicans it’s the White Terror. But actually the real terror is in the hearts of those who commit the atrocity.”
