New Stuff from Me! (Part 1)
(Well, new and new-ish.)
First: For Mystery fans: Next week I’m releasing The Bishop’s Lady (writing as Ashley Gardner), a novella in a mystery series I’ve been noodling with for years (but have not yet published).
The Émilie D’Armand Historical Mysteries are set in the time of Louis XIV, where Émilie is a lady-in-waiting to the queen of France. Left destitute when her husband is killed (he owed many debts), Émilie has to live by her wits, finagling a post with the queen via Madame de Monstepan, the king’s mistress.
In this brief introduction to Émilie’s character, she is visiting a friend in Paris where a cold case crime involving her friend’s family awaits her.
You learn a little bit about Émilie here and will more when I get the first novel finished and out!
The Bishop’s Lady is available immediately on my shop or you can pre-order from the other vendors for a release next week:

Full disclosure: This story was previously published in the Murder Most Historical anthology (where it still is in print), so if you have that, you have the story. However, this version has a pretty, new cover! (And if you want it in print, please see the Murder Most Historical anthology).
I hope you enjoy it!
More new stuff forthwith!
