In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Mary Winters, author of "Murder in Postscript," the first book in the Lady of Letter Series. Mary shared her inspiration for writing historical mysteries, her love for cozy mysteries, and how her trip to London in 2019 sparked the idea for the series. We also discussed the incorporation of romance into the series, as well as some book recommendations for our listeners. If you're a fan of historical mysteries and bookish romances, this episode is for you! Happy listening and reading!
