edit data

As LP Fergusson I write historical novels including A Dangerous Act of Kindness and The Fever Box both set during the early years of WW2, and The Summer Fields set during a smallpox epidemic two centuries earlier.

As Loraine Fergusson I write a series of cozy mysteries set at Duntisbourne Hall, a crumbling stately home on the borders of Wales and inspired by my time working at Blenheim Palace. The Archivist (2012), The Golden Hand (2013) and The Hipkiss File (2023) are all available on Amazon.

Quotes by L.P. Fergusson (?)

“every now and then I come across a glimmer of hope, a flash of human decency and I wonder if our salvation lies not in politics, or treaties, but in individual acts of kindness, which are as inexplicable as the violence our country has unleashed upon the world.”
