Reviews
"Readers who enjoy mysteries set in the 1920s will enjoy the return of the spirited and independent Julia." -Library Journal "Passing Fancies features a remarkable protagonist in stylish, smart, and compassionate Julia Kydd, and I was riveted by her story and by the mystery that unfolds. Highly original characters and a fascinating time and place of Jazz Age New York pulled me in and kept me turning pages. Underlying social issues evoke some strong parallels to today, making this a must-read novel." -Nancy Bilyeau, author of The Blue and Dreamland "An intelligent, likeable heroine, New York City, and the Harlem Renaissance combine to add vibrancy and complexity to a finely wrought historical novel [written] with depth and style." -Megan Chance, author of A Drop of Ink
