Here's a good read for the dark days of January. I loved this cheeky romp -- a kind of Fanny Hill meets Nancy Drew in a world Dickens would have known. India Black, the witty and resourceful young madam of a London brothel, is a delightful protagonist and I shall follow her future career with particular interest.
I was sent an advance reading copy some while back (full disclosure: Carol Carr and I are represented by the same agent) but the book only became available yesterday.
If you enjoy a strong female protagonist and mystery in a historical setting, you need to meet India Black.
Sound fun? A full review can be found at http://www.lesasbookcritiques.blogspot.com/
