Author of the Lady Ashcroft Mysteries series, brings you her historical fiction drama.


A fictional historical drama, set in the mid 1800s Ireland.
Kirkville is situated on the eastern coastline of Ulster, County Down. There are several estates that are controlled by their masters, but not everyone is pleased by this authority, and who is charging them rent during a time when the famine is taking its hold. Olivia travels from her homeland of America to visit her cousin right here in this quiet little village, though she is soon to realise that her first opinions were but a skim across a very deep ocean.
Murder and mayhem ensue, and from the rich to the poor, there are suspects and victims, but who is friend or foe? Who can you trust when all around you are people who are not all that they seem?
A romantic gentleman from Scotland is a seductive topic of discussion, but then there is his enemy, a gentleman of great standing and power, but his pride and ignorance has made him fault himself in public view. Who will Olivia choose as her beloved when there are so many temptations? A handsome smuggler challenges even her steadfast morals, though he has his own worries when the Militia arrive to drive out the undesirables.
There is wit, and cheer amongst sorrow and drama, but be assured that all ends well in this tale of romance and murder!
