You may have to buy it in ebook, as it seems to be out of print. But it is easily available in Apple Books and maybe Kindle.Sue Bursztynskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09362273418897882971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27643523.post-19905249034761867172021-08-31T08:38:57.335-07:002021-08-31T08:38:57.335-07:00Well, you had me at Antryg Windrose having been in...Well, you had me at Antryg Windrose having been inspired by Tom Baker!

I’ve been reading this author’s Benjamin January novels, which are wonderful, and are set in 1840s New Orleans, with all its culture. This one is great too, and she does have her research on the background already there, after Bride Of The Rat God, so why not!

I watch the silver screen histories on Foxtel and I imagine the mysteries could well have been (loosely) taken from actual events. My father described the Fatty Arbuckle case a number of times, showing the shoddy aspects of the off-screen lives of Hollywood stars.Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.com
