About

The author of six mystery novels, my new book, Blackbird Fly, is a novel of suspense. It features Merle Bennett, an attorney in New York City, whose husband suddenly dies, leaving her with little but a bushel of secrets. As she peels back the onion on his life, she goes to France to resurrect his ancestral home. Far from a bucolic vacation, her French summer finds her dealing with an estranged squatter, unfriendly natives, and a surprise in the garden house. It's enough to make a girl pine for the suburbs. But Merle can't go home until all is resolved, one way or another.

Description

<p><span><span>Shakespeare's Witches tell Banquo, &quot;Thou Shalt 'Get Kings Though Thou Be None&quot;. Though Banquo is murdered, his son Fleance gets away. What happened to Fleance? What Kings? As Shakespeare's audience apparently knew, Banquo was the ancestor of the royal Stewart line. But the road to kingship had a most inauspicious beginning, and we follow Fleance into exile and death, bestowing the Witches' prophecy on his illegitimate son Walter. Born in Wales and raised in disgrace, Walter's efforts to understand Banquo's murder and honor his lineage take him on a long and treacherous journey through England and France before facing his destiny in Scotland.</span></span></p>
