Produktbeschreibung
Emily Dickinson and her house maid Willa Noble realize there is nothing poetic about murder in this first book in an all-new series from USA Today bestselling and Agatha Award-winning author Amanda Flower. June 1854 Willa Noble knew it was bad luck when it was pouring rain on the day of her ever important job interview at the Dickinson home in Amherst, Massachusetts. When she arrived late, disheveled with her skirts sodden and filthy, she'd lost all hope of being hired for the position. As the house keeper politely told her they'd be in touch, Willa started toward the door of the stately home only to be called back by the soft but strong voice of Emily Dickinson. What begins as tenous employment turns to friendship as the reclusive poet takes Willa under her wing. Tragedy soon strikes and Willa's beloved brother Henry is killed in an apparent carriage accident. With no other family and nowhere else to turn, Willa tells Emily about her brother's death and why she believes it was no accident. Willa is convinced it was murder. Henry had been very secretive of late only hinting to Willa that he found a way to earn money to take care of them both. Viewing it first as a puzzle to piece together, Emily offers to help, only to realize that she and Willa are caught in a deadly game of cat and mouse that reveals corruption in Amherst that is generations deep. Some very high powered people will stop at nothing to keep their profitable secrets even if that means forever silencing Willa and her new mistress… Series Overview: A new historical series featuring Willa Noble, maid to iconic American poet Emily Dickinson, who solves mysteries with her new employer.
