Los Angeles native and award-winning author Jeri Westerson writes the critically acclaimed Crispin Guest Medieval Mysteries, historical novels, paranormal novels, and LGBT mysteries. To date, her medieval mysteries have garnered twelve industry award nominations, from the Agatha to the Shamus. Kirkus Review said of her latest Crispin Guest Medieval Mystery A MAIDEN WEEPING, “Once again Guest’s past misdeeds actually help him in the present in a case that includes plenty of red herrings and an interesting look at medieval jurisprudence.” Jeri is former president of the SoCal chapter of Mystery Writers of America and frequently guest lectures on medieval history at local colleges and museums. She lives in southern California with her home-brewing husband, a complacent tortoise, and 40,000 bees.
"Subversively clever, this book sneaks up on you, teasing you to a
final twist that leaves you panting for the next book. Westerson
creates an utterly believable history of witches, demons, and magic
for her claustrophobic New England village and peoples it with rich
and wonderful characters, including a heroine with enough spark,
smarts, and stubbornness to keep both the bad guys and the
deliciously dangerous love-interest on their toes. Definitely a
keeper!" —Kat Richardson, author of the Greywalker series
For the Crispin Guest series:
“Westerson displays the skill of a writer who has mastered her
subject and has used that knowledge to create erudite
entertainment.” —Richmond Times-Dispatch
“Westerson skillfully lulls her sleuth and the reader into a sense
of ‘I know what is going on,’ then zings them with the truth.
Absolutely first-class...” —Library Journal, Starred Review
“Inspired prose liberally laced with action.” –RT Book Reviews
