Beau Brummell, who decides -- rather foolishly -- that Mistress Martha will find
him quite irresistible......
The first review of "Conspiracy of Angels" has been published. In the Tivyside Advertiser dated 10th April, Liz Whittaker calls the book "another scorching page-turner in the life of Mistress Martha, the 19th century heroine whose life has been recorded in such convincing detail through family feuds, murders and the mundane experiences of daily life...."
"The finding of Martha's diaries is the portal into the stories of her life, and one which cleverly builds the early excitement from opening the first pages........ the idea of finding something hidden, and of revealing it to the world works its spell, for once the current diary is found, its credibility is established."
About Martha: "For her time, she is nothing if not a liberated woman, aware of her class and yet also democratic and classless in her treatment of others."
"The joy of the series is that beginners can join at any point since each book or "diary" stands alone as well as being connected, so this one is as good a place to start as any. And for those who know Mistress Martha well, they will already be queuing up for a copy."
