Tuesday morning I finished reading Rhys Bowen's On Her Majesty's Frightfully Secret Service and as usual with books in this Royal Spyness Mystery Series I did not wish to put it down. ◊ Historical Mystery (2001): Murphy's Law When I am not writing I love to travel, sing, hike, play my Celtic harp. I was born and raised in England but currently divide my time between California and Arizona where I go to escape from the harsh California winters I am also known for my Constable Evans books, set in North Wales, and for my award-winning short stories. It was voted by readers as best mystery series one year. It's lighter, sexier, funnier, wicked satire. I also write the Agatha-winning Royal Spyness series, about the British royal family in the 1930s. My books are currently translated into 29 languages and I have fans worldwide. My other stand-alone novels are The Victory Garden, about land girls in WWI and Above the Bay of Angels, featuring a young woman who becomes chef for Queen Victoria.Īpril 2021 will mark the publication of THE VENICE SKETCHBOOK-another sweeping historical novel of love, loss and intrigue. In Farleigh Field won three major awards and was nominated for an Edgar. I have recently published four internationally bestselling WWII novels, one of them a #1 Kindle bestseller, and the Tuscan Child selling almost a million copies to date. I'm a New York Times bestselling mystery author, winner of both Agatha and Anthony awards for my Molly Murphy mysteries, set in 1902 New York City. With all this subterfuge, it seems something is bound to go horribly wrong-and Georgie will no doubt be left to pick up the pieces when it does. Then her actress mother shows up, with a not-so-little task to perform. And her dashing beau, Darcy is (naturally) working undercover on a dangerous mission. Plus, she needs to hide Belinda’s delicate condition from the other guests. She soon discovers that she attended finishing school with the hostess of the party-and the hatred they had for each other then has barely dimmed. Only that’s as far as Georgie’s fortune takes her. What luck! A chance to see Belinda, even if it is under the guise of stopping unwanted nuptials. Simpson have been invited, and Her Majesty is anxious to thwart a possible secret wedding. The Prince of Wales AND the dreadful Mrs. If only she could find a way to get there! But then opportunity presents itself in a most unexpected way-her cousin the queen asks her to attend a house party in the Italian Lake Country. When royal sleuth Georgie Rannoch receives a letter from her dearest friend Belinda, who’s in an Italian villa awaiting the birth of her illegitimate baby, she yearns to run to her side.
