My Review
There is an elegance about this book and it was very hard to put down. I love detail in historical novels I read and this had it to the fullest. Atmospheric, I felt as though I was there experiencing it. The character development was a natural progression that I loved following.
The author has a natural understanding of the era she writes about in her books and masters it quite will with authenticity. Action,mystery,romance and oh yes, lets not forget about villains are to be found in this book and enjoyed.
I've loved every book I've read by this author and eagerly look forward to reading what she puts out next as it's guaranteed to be a sure winner. Published April 1st 2020 by Shiloh Run Press I was given a complimentary copy. Thank you. All opinions expressed are my own.

I hear voices. Loud. Incessant. And very real. Which basically gives me two options: choke back massive amounts of Prozac or write fiction. I chose the latter. Way cheaper. I've been writing since I discovered blank wall space and Crayolas. I seek to glorify God in all that I write...except for that graffiti phase I went through as a teenager. Oops. Did I say that out loud?
