Su questo libro

Recensione:

"Harper's facility with historical figures such as William Cecil, Robert Dudley, and the treacherous Duchess of Suffolk is extraordinary."
-- Los Angeles Times

"Harper masterfully captures the Elizabethan tone in both language and setting and gives life to some fascinating historical figures....Elizabethan history has never been this appealing."
-- New York Newsday

Don't miss Karen Harper's acclaimed debut novel in The Elizabeth I Mystery Series, The Poyson Garden:

"Impressively researched...the author has her poisons and her historical details down pat."
-- Los Angeles Times

"A walk side-by-side with one of history's most dynamic characters."
-- Anne Perry, author of Half Moon Street

"An entertaining cross between a swashbuckling historical romance and a mystery novel. The heroine is spunky, the courtiers scheme and truckle, capes swirl, daggers flash and horses gallop."
-- Portland Oregonian
