The Dark Enquiry by Deanna Raybourn

REVIEW: The Dark Enquiry by Deanna Raybourn

JayneB- Reviews19th century / Deanna Raybourn / Harlequin / Lady Julia Grey mystery / mystery17 Comments

Dear Ms. Raybourn, By now the Lady Julia Grey series is well known among fans of historical mysteries. And it’s also had time for flaws to emerge from it. I doubt any long running series is immune from this. The initial bloom is off the rose so to speak. You ... more >

REVIEW: Dark Road to Darjeeling by Deanna Raybourn
