Dear Ms Mueller,
One thing I know is that I’ll always get something new and different when I begin one of your stories. I realize I mention the unusual settings you utilize in almost every review but I appreciate it so darn much that it just has to be said. And this is one [...]

Dear Mrs. Raybourn,
I remember when historical mysteries first started to become really popular. Then after that it seems that every possible time period and social class of historical sleuth got turned into some author’s hero or heroine. And I got a little bored with the genre and annoyed at thinking about Queen Elizabeth, Jane [...]

Dear Ms. Bloom,
had never heard your name before Jane sent me a copy of
“The Mortician’s Daughter.” And I didn’t realize that you also wrote a mystery series under the name of Beth Saulnier until I checked at the Big Internet Book Store for anything else you’d written. Now that I’ve read this book [...]

Dear Mrs. Franklin/Norman,
What can I say? I finished “Mistress of the Art of Death” late in the evening after reading non-stop for almost 200 pages. My heart was racing, I was glued to the book and if a fire had started somewhere in my house, I honestly don’t think I would have noticed until I [...]

Dear Mrs Wynn,
After having written about traditional 10 regencies, you’ve now started a new historical series set in 1715 England in which the politics and society of the day play a prominent role. I’m going to steal a review
done at amazon.com:
“Pat Wynn is a proven master at the Regency mystery genre. Her newest novel [...]

Dear Ms Franklin,
I’ve adored your books written as Diana Norman and rejoiced when Rosario broke the news that you also write under this name. When I knew you had this and another book already released, I was elated. As I read this book, I was euphoric. I wanted to race through it to enjoy [...]

Dear Ms Shinn,
I hadn’t known, or perhaps I’d just forgotten, that this book was a police procedural murder mystery. I did know that it involved priestesses so expected some religious element but I had not expected to be blown away by how wonderfully you would work that into the story. And while the book [...]
