Just finished reading Murder by Ghostlight, a murky, Dickensian murder mystery set in Manchester and London - believable characters; gloriously twisted plot and it made me want to read more Dickens. Immediately. Thank you @JeanCBriggs 📚 #BookTwitter

Glad to see the 6th Rebecca Connolly on the list!

So am I. My heroines keep turning up in the wrong book. I need a walk in those ruins, please.

[Deborah Swift @swiftstory]

Working on 2 books at once this week - writing one and researching the other. Here is my inspiration for the morning's writing - a scene set in the Roman Baths of Carcalla. Wouldn't you just like a walk around those ruins. #Rome #HistoricalFiction #amwriting #Baroque

Lovely day here on the Cumbria/Lancashire border. Probably won't see much sun because today is one of my big writing days where I don't have any teaching or other commitments. Going to dive in now, and I'm heading to Rome's Spirito Santo hospital... #amwriting #HistoricalFiction

There's a traitor in Baker Street, and de-coder Nancy must find out the truth, even if the double agent turns out to be her lover, Tom.

As I strive to finish the fourth book in the series, why not discover the first three Everett Carr mysteries? Fans of the Golden Age of Detective Fiction, Poirot, Wimsey, Marple & Co will get a kick out of Carr. Published by @levelbestbooks
