Hello. I'm an Author.

The Shades of London series

The Shades of London series

The New York Times bestselling, Edgar Award-nominated series.

The day that Louisiana teenager Rory Deveaux arrives in London to start a new life at boarding school is also the day a series of brutal murders breaks out over the city, killings mimicking the horrific Jack the Ripper spree of more than a century ago.

But Rory has gained an ability in her time in London–and this ability will change the direction of her life and introduce her to London’s most secret police force.
