M. Louisa Locke's Monthly Newsletter
August 2023 and Dandy and the Dognappers is now available for sale!
Dear Reader,
Dandy and the Dognappers, my newest novella went live yesterday, and I am very pleased with how well it is selling. The events in this novella come only a week after the events in Mrs. Stein Solves a Crime, and if you haven’t read that book yet, I would highly recommend you do so as a companion piece. Both of them are only $2.99, and can be found on Kindle, Kobo, AppleBooks, Barnes and Noble, GooglePlay and other Retailers.
This month the first four audiobooks in this series are still on sale (see below), but starting on September 1, the audiobook edition of Victorian San Francisco Stories: Vol 1, goes on sale on Chirp, so you might want to go remind yourself to go check that out in a couple of days. There is also the usual raffle for free Spotify codes for an audiobook.
The historical mystery from the Round Robin I am participating in this month is Jane Steen’s, Lady Helena Investigates, which I think many of you will enjoy.

Historical Mystery for the Month:
Lady Helena Investigates, by Jane Steen
1881, Sussex. With a drowned husband—the second love lost—an overbearing family, no longed-for child, and the responsibility of a huge baroque mansion, it's not surprising Lady Helena Whitcombe is overwhelmed. When attractive, mysterious, French physician Armand Fortier disturbs her first weeks of mourning with his theory of murder, Helena's reluctant and ineffective attempts at investigation are hardly life-changing—until the resulting revival in her long-abandoned herbalist studies bring her into confrontation with her past and her family's.
Can Lady Helena survive bereavement the second time around? Can she stand up to her six siblings' assumption of the right to control her new life as a widow? And what role will Fortier—who, as a physician, is a most unsuitable companion for an earl's daughter—play in her investigations?
Every family has its secrets. The Scott-De Quincy family has more than most. Get your copy of this first book in series for FREE.
