LET'S GET COZY! MRS. JEFFRIES SERVES AT SIX: A PREVIEW AND GIVEAWAY

 
GIVEAWAY ENDED
MRS. JEFFRIES SERVES AT SIX
Victorian Mysteries
BY EMILY BRIGHTWELL

ABOUT THE BOOK:
3-in-1 reissues

If you like Downton Abbey, you’ll love Mrs. Jeffries!

NOW IN ONE VOLUME…THREE VICTORIAN MYSTERIES FEATURING MRS. JEFFRIES

A DETECTIVE IN THE HOUSE
Everyone’s awed by Inspector Witherspoon’s Scotland Yard successes, but they don’t know about his secret weapon. Her name is Mrs. Jeffries, and she keeps house for the Inspector…and keeps him on his toes. No matter how messy the murder or how dirty the deed, her polished detection skills are up to the task. Because as she knows all too well, a crimesolver’s work is never done…
MRS. JEFFRIES PINCHES THE POST “A Victorian Mystery #16” 
The dubious dealings of ruthless businessman Harrison Nye have finally done him in. But with his associate keeping secrets and his maid missing, Witherspoon and Mrs. Jeffries have their work cut out for them as they make it their business to find the culprit …
MRS. JEFFRIES PLEADS HER CASE “A Victorian Mystery #17” 
When the death of Harlan Westover is ruled a suicide after a slipshod investigation, it’s up to Mrs. Jeffries and her staff to gently nudge the Inspector in the right direction before a killer gets away with another murder…
MRS. JEFFRIES SWEEPS THE CHIMNEY “A Victorian Mystery #18” 
A dead man dressed like a vicar is discovered outside a church. An address found on the man leads Witherspoon to a dilapidated house where a skeleton is stuffed in the chimney. Luckily he has Mrs. Jeffries to help him sweep up this mess of a case…

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Emily Brightwell was born in West Virginia, the middle sister to Nanette and Linda. Her family moved to Los Angeles in the early sixties, where she graduated from Pasadena High School.

After her high school years, Emily went to California State University Fullerton and earned a Degree in American Studies.

On a visit to England in 1975, one January morning in Leeds, Yorkshire she met the Englishman who would become her husband, Richard. They were married in May 1976 and returned to California in September 1977.

In 1988 Emily decided to try fiction writing and make a new career as a writer.

This was always a dream of hers so she began by writing romances and became a member of the Romance Writers of America. After her entry in the “unpublished authors” contest run by the Orange County chapter of the RWA, was a finalist, she was delighted, but the editor who read my manuscript was scathing in her criticism.

She was crushed for a day or so, but it hardened my resolve to continue writing. It was her very next proposal that sold to Silhouette and was published as a Special Edition under the pen name of Sarah Temple.

Emily wrote two more Special Editions for Silhouette but always wanted to write other kinds of fiction so when her agent asked if she would be interested in writing a Victorian mystery series for Prime Crime she jumped at the chance.

I like that these are about a servant assisting the Inspector. Sort of like Alfred assisting Batman. I'd love to read them.
