DeAnna Julie Dodson is the author of The Chastelayne Trilogy, and as Julianna Deering is the author of the Drew Farthering Mysteries.
DeAnna is a Dallas native and has lived in North Texas all her life. Although her degree is in business, her real interest has always been in literature, music and the fine arts. Medieval English history and Shakespeare are particular favorites of hers and, along with her Christian faith, have most influenced her medieval trilogy: In Honor Bound, By Love Redeemed, and To Grace Surrendered. DeAnna is also a huge fan of cozy mysteries, especially those written by Agatha Christie, Dorothy L. Sayers and Margery Allingham. That has, of course, influenced her English cozy series, The Drew Farthering Mysteries, as well as her contemporary mysteries for Annie's Attic. DeAnna also loves cross stitch, quilting, Dallas Stars hockey, and her cats: Eloise and Elizabeth and her new baby boy, Petie. |

Featured TitleMurder at the Mikado
(Drew Farthering Mysteries #3) by Julianna Deering
Purchase: [Kindle | Amazon | The Book Depository] When a celebrated ACTOR IS FOUND MURDERED IN HIS DRESSING ROOM, all signs point to Drew's old flame. But behind the curtains nothing is what it seems and this quickly becomes his MOST puzzling case YET. Just as Drew Farthering thinks his life has calmed down some, Fleur Landis, a former girlfriend, reappears, in dire need of his help. She's married now, no longer an actress—but the lead actor in her former troupe's production of The Mikado has been murdered, and Fleur is the police's number one suspect. Drew would rather focus on his fiancée, Madeline Parker, and their upcoming wedding, but he can't leave Fleur and her family in the lurch—even if she did break his heart once. As Drew, Nick, and Madeline begin investigating, they discover more going on behind the scenes of the theater troupe than could ever have been imagined. It seems nearly everyone had a motive, and alibis are few and far between. Both the murder case and the presence of the beautiful, exotic Fleur put a heavy strain on Drew and Madeline's relationship. Will their still-young romance survive the pressure? |
