Oh, you will definitely like The Violet Hour, then. Lots of twists and turns. I hope they get all of his older books into ebook format, as I would like to replace my paper copies.

I have to say, I love the series.  |
I meant "her"=the author. lol. I was hoping it would be the case that the series would get better. I really found some of the ancillary characters interesting and different.
