The Deadly Hours

"Charming... Four interconnected visits to a world of danger, wit, beauty and genuine romance. Treat yourself!"--ANNE PERRY, internationally bestselling author A stellar line-up of historical mystery novelists weaves the tale of a priceless and cursed gold watch as it passes through time wreaking havoc from one owner to another. The characters are irrevocably linked by fate, each playing a key role in breaking the curse and destroying the watch once and for all. From 1733 Italy to Edinburgh in 1831 to a series of chilling murders in 1870 London, and a lethal game of revenge decades later, the watch touches lives with misfortune, until it comes into the reach of one young woman who might be able to stop it for good. This outstanding collaboration of authors includes: Susanna Kearsley - New York Timesand USA Todaybestselling author of compelling time slip fiction. C.S. Harris - bestselling author of the Sebastian St. Cyr Regency mystery series. Anna Lee Huber - award-winning author of the national bestselling Lady Darby Mysteries. Christine Trent - author of the Lady of Ashes Victorian mystery series.

3.5⭐️ for an interlocking series of novellas written by four historical mystery authors of basically equal talent (but have to admit I enjoyed Kearsley’s and Harris’ entries the most).
