And sweetie, you yourself have been a great reacher-outer, and encourager, and lifter-upper, and supporter - gosh, you're starting to sound like a bra! - anyway, your encouragement and enthusiasm and advice and support has meant the world to me, and I'm sure to many others among the debut group, as well. You're an awesome writer, but an even more awesome gal, and I know I feel so lucky to have you in my (virtual, so far) life. <BR/><BR/>Here's to ya, babe!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3389112.post-24678295151208029722008-07-18T14:30:00.000-04:002008-07-18T14:30:00.000-04:00Kelli, you're a gem!

The story follows half-Roman, half-Briton Arcturus, physician and informal investigator to the Roman governor Agricola, as he delves into the death of a shady merchant. The trail leads through Londinium's seedy underbelly, shining a light in dark corners from the lowliest prostitute's crib to the highest seats of Roman power. The setting is crisply-drawn, the characters rich and engaging, and the mystery tight and enthralling, with Arcturus' wry humor and keen observations leading the way through this gritty page-turner. If you enjoy classic noir, or you enjoy your mystery with a classical setting, you won't be disappointed. It may be A Long Night for Sleeping, but don't plan on any sleep until you finish this gem.Bill Cameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04796321136771189464noreply@blogger.com
