Leaden Skies gets nod from author Stephanie Barron

Wowzers! I'm interrupting my musings about Malice Domestic to share this blurb from Stephanie Barron (author of the Jane Austen mysteries) re: Leaden Skies. I'm walking on air ... without the benefit of JetBlue!

Parker’s deft evocation of a lost era in Western American history—the life of the mining boom town—and her complex characterization make Leaden Skies an absorbing read. Her final, cliff-hanging sentence will make every reader desperate for the next installment in Inez Stannert’s epic tale. A riveting historical mystery.
—Stephanie Barron
