THE RIVER KNOWS is out in paperback!
I'm delighted to tell you that THE RIVER KNOWS, my latest Amanda Quick novel, is now available in paperback. No, this is not an Arcane Society novel. It is a stand-alone. But it is set in the same Late Victorian world. It features Miss Louisa Bryce who makes her living as an undercover reporter covering the scandals and sensations of the Polite World. You will also meet the notorious Anthony Stalbridge, a wealthy, mysterious gentleman who just happens to be at the heart of society's most notorious scandalHere's a little taste of the story...
"Well, I suppose we must look at the positive side of things," Louisa said. "The fact that the members of your family think that we are engaged in an intimate liaison does indicate that our little charade may be working after all, don't you think?"
He decided not to respond to that because he could feel his temper heating.
She cleared her throat. "My point is that if your own relatives are convinced that we are romantically involved, Hastings must certainly believe it also, and that is the important thing, is it not?"
He continued to watch her, saying nothing.
She glowered. "Stop looking at me like that."
"Like what?" he asked.
"As if you're about to pounce. What are you thinking, sir?"
He unfolded his arms, flattened his hands on the desk, and leaned toward her. "I am thinking," he said evenly "that my family's conclusion is no more or less than the truth. We are having an illicit affair."
"Yes, well, I suppose one could say that in the technical sense of the word--."
"In every sense of the word."
He swung her up into his arms and started toward the door.
SPECIAL NOTE: 
Those of you who read me as Jayne Castle have been asking about the next Ghost Hunter novel. I'm excited to tell you that the first chapter of the next book in that series, DARK LIGHT, appears at the end of THE RIVER KNOWS.
Those of you who read me as Jayne Castle have been asking about the next Ghost Hunter novel. I'm excited to tell you that the first chapter of the next book in that series, DARK LIGHT, appears at the end of THE RIVER KNOWS. DARK LIGHT won't be out until late August but here's your chance to meet our newest heroic dust bunny: Elvis. Oh, yeah, you'll also get a chance to meet John Fontana, a sexy and very mysterious Guild Boss. But more about those two later.
I wish you all a happy spring!
