About the Book

Rebel with Many Causes Dismissed from her governess post in Ireland, Mary Wollstonecraft lands on her feet in London. After the 1792 publication of her ground-breaking Vindication of the Rights of Woman she gains entrÃ(c)e to a circle of celebrated artists and intellectuals. But Mary falls into obsession and infatuation with painter Henry Fuseli after his hauntingly erotic masterpiece The Nightmare is stolen. When a young artist is wrongfully accused and imprisoned, and a bluestocking friend is strangled, Mary's passionate nature does not allow her to stand aside. Her quest for the truth will lead her into personal notoriety, a trip to a madhouse, and confrontations with more than one possible murderer.

Review :
A deft portrait of a vanished world and one of history's most compelling women -- not to be missed. -- Stephanie Barron, author of Jane and the Canterbury Tale Overlapping mysteries thicken the plot in this fast-paced story, set in a circle of famous authors and artists, whose revolutionary fervor, passions, and injured innocence lead them into dangerous waters. -- Patricia Wynn, author of A Killing Frost Wright skillfully evokes the people and ideas from the age of Enlightenment in her entertaining second mystery featuring Mary Wollstonecraft (after 2010's Midnight Fires), which once again shows how Mary's brilliance as a freethinker could have made her an expert crime-solver. -- Publishers Weekly
