The Light Bearer
A Goth, her name was Auriane. She was a warrior, a priestess – and a threat to the powers of Rome.
By Donna Gillespie
“Germanic Auriane is a combination of the noble, natural savage, and the heroine marked from birth for great deeds. Roman Marcus Julianus is the personification of the highest civilized, republican Roman values. Both are typical and atypical of their societies, fighting for what each believes to be just”. – Amazon.com

Agatha Raisin and the Quiche of Death by M.C. Beaton
To ensure first prize in the village quiche-making competition, Agatha buys her entry from
London’s renowned Quicherie. Alas, Agatha’s impeccable
product is soon exposed – as not only store-bought but poisoned.
The contest judge, Mr. Cummings-Browne, rumored
to be a connoisseur of women as well as food, succumbs
after eating it, and with him go Agatha’s chances for
bucolic bliss – unless she can nab the true culprit.
