A Gentleman Fallen on Hard Times: The Lord Julian Mysteries--Book One Paperback – July 9, 2023
Purchase options and add-ons
Lord Julian Caldicott has come home from the war in ragged health and with a reputation in tatters. All he wants is to recuperate in private without bringing any further scandal on the family’s good name. His godmother inveigles him into serving as her escort to a rural house party, whereupon circumstances conspire to prevent Julian from resuming his reclusive existence.
Must shine the light of truth on a dangerous deception.
Julian becomes the subject of rumors, lies, and whispers, and soon he’s faced with a choice: Wage one more battle for honor’s sake, or be branded a traitor to all that he holds dear. He will enlist unlikely allies, face old demons, and vex every other guest on the premises, but he will not stop until he’s brought a criminal to justice–or died trying.

About the author
I started writing as an antidote to empty nest and soon found it an antidote to life in general. I am the sixth out of seven children, and was raised in the rural surrounds of central Pennsylvania. Early in life I spent a lot of time reading romance novels and practicing the piano. My first career was as a technical writer and editor in the Washington, DC, area, a busy profession that nonetheless left enough time to read a lot of romance novels.
It also left enough time to grab a law degree through an evening program, produce Beloved Offspring (only one, but she is a lion), and eventually move to the lovely Maryland countryside.
While reading yet still more romance novels (there is a trend here) I opened a law practice, acquired a master's degree in Conflict Transformation (I had a teenage daughter by then) and started thinking about writing.... romance novels. This aim was realized when Beloved Offspring struck out into the Big World. ("Mom, why doesn't anybody tell you being a grown-up is hard?")
I eventually got up the courage to start pitching manuscripts to agents and editors. The query letter that resulted in "the call" started out: "I am the buffoon in the bar at the writer's retreat who could not keep her heroines straight, could not look you in the eye, and could not stop blushing--and if that doesn't narrow down the possibilities, your job is even harder than I thought." (The dear lady bought the book anyway.)

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The hero believes himself a traitor but his memory fails him. Society believes it too. The plot centers on this fact but is moved along on another character’s perfidy.
Very cleverly done.
I recommend to anyone appreciating a nonviolent action story.

The hero has returned under a thunderstorm, not just a cloud of scandal, bowed & feeling broken with shame. His godmother is peerless and seeks to do miracles with her wit & love. A villain, a trail by fire with the best cast of characters make this book the envy of Gosford Park. You will be sated but panting for the next book or two. Thank you dear lady.
I found the main character likeable and admirable, as was the main female character. The various nuances of human behaviour added interest and the mystery wasn't too OTT, a little different than usual and more believable than many. I look forward to learning more about Lord Julian, Hyperia and also Just Atticus in the next book in the series.
Ich bin schon gespannt auf den nächsten Teil
