Insert body text here ...
What the critics are saying........
A "densely plotted yarn about a crafty 18th-century poisoner wreaking havoc on the Oxfordshire estate of a noble family......we await — indeed, demand — the sequel."
New York Times
An "engrossing, lively and satisfying series debut."
Barbara Clark, BookPage
Harris’ research is meticulous. The results are a historical CSI with a romance and excellent mystery.
Romantic Times
Harris has more than a few tricks up her sleeve, and even veteran armchair puzzle solvers are likely to be surprised.
Publishers Weekly
"Tessa Harris has delivered a deftly plotted debut. Just when you think the puzzle is solved, she reveals yet another surprising twist which leaves you marveling at her ingenuity."
Carol Carr, author of India Black
"CSI meets the Age of Reason with a well-drawn, intriguing cast of characters, headed by the brilliant Dr. Thomas Silkstone. Full of twists and turns, Tessa Harris's debut mystery can confound the most adept reader. Vivid details pulled me right into the world of early forensic sleuthing. A page turner!"
Karen Harper
Tessa Harris
Welcome to my web pages. Like many writers, I lead a double life. For almost 30 years I've been a journalist by day, but always a closet novelist and screenplay writer by night. That has changed recently with the publication (in December 2011) of my first historical crime novel in the Dr Thomas Silkstone Mystery series, The Anatomist's Apprentice. Two more are planned for 2012 and 2013. Both the fact and the fiction elements of my life do, however, co-exist very happily and are united in my passion for history.
