Tanzanite's Castle Full of Books

Here are a couple more upcoming releases to add to the ol' wishlist:


her own cousin, Lettie Knollys. Far more attractive than the
queen, Lettie soon won the attention of the handsome and
ambitious Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester, a man so enamored
of the queen and determined to share her throne that it was
rumored he had murdered his own wife in order to become her
royal consort. The enigmatic Elizabeth allowed Dudley into her
heart, and relied on his devoted service, but shied away from
the personal and political risks of marriage.
When Elizabeth discovered that he had married her cousin
Lettie in secret, Lettie would pay a terrible price, fighting to
keep her husband’s love and ultimately losing her beloved son,
the Earl of Essex, to the queen’s headsman.  This is the unforgettable story of two women related by blood, yet destined to clash over one of Tudor England’s most charismatic man.




honeymooning in Constantinople (Tears of Pearl), Lady Emily is
recuperating from her wounds at her mother-in-law’s estate in
Normandy when, while out horseback riding in the countryside,
she comes across the body of a young woman who has been
horribly murdered. Her wounds are identical to those inflicted
on the victims of Jack the Ripper, who is wreaking havoc across
the channel in London. Lady Emily and Colin learn that the
victim is the daughter of a high born family of French
aristocrats who had been committed to an asylum for the insane.
While there, she had given birth to an illegitimate child who was
spirited away and may be dead.
As Lady Emily pursues a trail of clues (and bodies) to the
beautiful medieval city of Rouen and a crumbling chateau in the
country, she begins to worry about her own sanity: she hears the
cries of a little girl she cannot find and discovers blue ribbons
left in the child’s wake. Emily is on the verge of solving the
mystery, when she is suddenly taken captive by the killer and held in an isolated tower where she once again hears the eerie cries of the lost child. She has to muster all her courage in a terrifying game of wits against a cold and brilliant murderer or she will be his next victim.
