    <about><![CDATA[Become immersed as a young woman challenges the morality of the day in the Victorian era, discover the lives of murder suspects as a female London DI takes the case, or take a flight of fantasy with a witch in medieval Eire...    <br/><br/>British born MC Halliday lives at the edge of a forest, nestled in a mountain valley. Ravens have been known to leave gifts on her doorstep, once an old chicken bone and often shiny bits of metal. MC pens tales of women ranging from medieval fantasy romance to sensual erotic fiction in the Victorian era and contemporary noir mystery. She is a mistress in the art of surprising revelations and depth-charged plot twists. The first DI Cambridge mystery, A Bribe Against the Innocent, placed # 5 in P&amp;E Reader Polls for 2007 Best Mystery Novel. <br/><br/>Website with book list and author news can be found at: <br/><br/><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://members.shaw.ca/mchalliday/">http://members.shaw.ca/mchalliday/</a><br/>]]></about>
