The Watergate
A Muirteach 2.5

Posted by Susan McDuffie on May 16, 2016

Muirteach MacPhee accompanies the Lord of the Isles to Urquhart Castle in this novelette. The horrifying death of a beautiful woman plunges Muirteach into a deeper mystery, as the party awaits the arrival of King Robert II of Scotland, and the upcoming Easter feast. This story could be dubbed Muirteach 2.5; chronologically it comes between the second and third Muirteach mysteries, THE FAERIE HILLS and THE STUDY OF MURDER.

A Regency Sampler

Comprising 15 winning entries from Regency Press’s first short story contest, this diverse collection runs the gamut from the intriguingly offbeat to the elegantly traditional and has something for just about every Regency taste…. Of particular note are Sarah Anne Starr’s memorable “Milady’s Murderer” and Susan McDuffie’s top-scoring epistolary story, “An Unusual Correspondence.” A charming, uncommon collection. ~ The Library Journal
