About
I'm a feminist with a love of history. Listen to Me: The Women of the Bible Speak Out gives ample voice to the women of sacred scripture. My Martha Beale novels: The Conjurer, Deception's Daughter, Without Fear, The Actress, and Sins of Commission are set in Victorian-era Philadelphia and explore women's issues and the chasm between wealth and poverty. Beneath The Wind, takes place on a yacht traversing the world in 1903, exposing the dangerous underbelly of colonialism. They Believed They Were Safe is a dark tale set in a small, New England college town in 1962.
Nonfiction: Biddle, Jackson, And A Nation In Turmoil; and Saint Katharine: The Life of Katharine Drexel.
I love chatting with book clubs. Please contact me for a lively and entertaining discussion.
