Born and raised in Verona (Italy), I've always lived to surround myself with books, so it may be a sort of karma that I ended up being a bookseller and an indie author. A fantasy reader since a kid, a Tolkien nerd almost as long, I've always being fascinated with history and old black-and-white mystery films, which may or may not have had a way in my involvement in the dieselpunk community. "Ghosts Through the Cracks" is my first publish novella. I'm currently working at more historical fantasy stories set in the 1920s. ...more

Another delightful Lady Swift murder mystery by Very Bright. This one has a deceptive title, because the story indeed starts at the Royal Palace, but most of it takes place in the Tower of London. And I simply loved the setting.

I have to say, very honestly, that this was not an easy story to read (and, I'm sure, it wasn't easy to write either).

So, not easy to talk about this novel because, first of all, I’m not even sure it is a novel. It rather feels more like a collection of episodes related to a crucial time in the fight for women’s rights in Great Britain. And in that regard, it is ver ...more
