Called to Justice is finished and in production. It's even up for preorder on Amazon! And isn't this a gorgeous cover?
Here's the blurb: Quaker midwife Rose Carroll is enjoying the 1888 Independence Day evening fireworks with her beau when a teenaged Quaker mill girl is found shot dead. After a former slave and fellow Quaker is accused of the murder, Rose delves into the crime, convinced of the man’s innocence. An ill-mannered mill manager, an Irish immigrant, and the victim’s young boyfriend come under suspicion even as Rose’s future with her handsome doctor suitor becomes unsure. Rose continues to deliver babies and listen to secrets, finally figuring out one criminal – only to be threatened by the murderer, with three lives at stake. Can she rescue herself, a baby, and her elderly midwifery teacher in time?
I'm so excited about this book! It'll be out in April, 2017. And this week I've started writing book three. It doesn't have a title or much of a plot yet, but it will by the end of summer. Stay tuned.
Readers, what do you think of the cover? Does a cover catch your eye in a bookstore or online, or do you go more for what the blurb says? What leads you to buy a book?

I just want to say that I recently finished reading the first midwife mystery, and I couldn't put it down. Having grown up in Methuen, I'm familiar with Amesbury, but I haven't been through there in years. I will not only be visiting in Amesbury but also pre-ordering the second book in the series. Thank you for writing not only an interesting bookbut also a well-researched one.
Thanks so much, Tina! I'm sorry I missed your comment at the time. I hope you can join us at our event on September 10. I'll try to reach you on FB or by email.
