Shéa MacLeod has dreamed of writing novels since before she could hold a crayon. She totally blames her mother.
Her favorite poem as a child was ‘Jabberwocky’, and Her favorite authors were Agatha Christie and Edgar Allan Poe. Which probably explains a lot.
After a six year sojourn in London, England, a dearth of good donuts has driven her back to her hometown. She now resides in the leafy green hills outside Portland, Oregon where she indulges in her fondness for strong coffee, Ancient Aliens reruns, lemon curd, and dragons.
Because everything's better with dragons.
Shéa is the author of the SUNWALKER SAGA (a fast paced urban fantasy series with a kick-ass heroine published by Montlake) and DRAGON WARS (a post-apocalyptic series with dragons)as well as the Cupcake Goddess novelettes.
The stories in this series, including this one are all entertaining. However, what I enjoy most is the details of the era. The cocktails, the slang, the designer clothing, all. of which I look up and read about as I run into them during the read. And Lady O,s irreverence for most things proper unless it suits her purpose to play the toff. Fun, frivolous stuff.
The Lady Rample mysteries are some of my favorite historical mysteries. Great characters and really good plots keep me coming back to this series. This book goes back to a death that occurred during WWI. Mr. Singh asks Lady Rample to help him get to the bottom of it. Read and enjoy!
