Westport Historical Society hosts a Prisoners in the Palace signing

December 20th, 2010, 4:11 pm

Yesterday I had a wonderful time at the Westport Historical Society. We had a high tea with real cucumber sandwiches, meringues and homemade almond tarts.  I spoke and read and signed…. thanks to everybody who came! And thanks to Amy Mortenson who took this great photo for the Connecticut Post and the Westport News.

The Book Aunt calls Prisoners in the Palace a lively read, full of intrigue….

December 19th, 2010, 2:39 am

The Book Aunt (because other people give you clothes and video games) wrote a terrific review of Prisoners in the Palace. She liked the intrigue which keeps getting “intriguier!”

Read it and check out her other reviews too — very thoughtful and I particularly like her guide for worried parents at the end.

Royal Reviews was kind enough to say that Prisoners in the Palace is an amazing read.  And then I got to do a guest post, “It’s a Maid’s Life…”  After all — who expects to read about the servants on a royal website?
