If You Like….
If you like Elizabeth Peters’ Vicky Bliss books, you’ll probably also like…
– Kasey Michaels’ Maggie series, starting with Maggie Needs an Alibi. Michaels’ Saint Just has more than a little in common with Peters’ “Sir” John Smythe.
– Donna Andrews’ Murder with Peacocks, largely because the narrator’s voice reminds me a lot of Vicky’s.
– Peters’ own The Camelot Caper, the beginning of Sir John’s chequered career.
– Helena Dela’s The Count, set, like so many of the Vicky books, in Germany, and with a suitably snarky first person narratrix.
I feel like there are very obvious things I’m leaving out… and I’ll kick myself when I remember. Any other ideas?
Many thanks to Alexandra for the “if you like” request!
As a side note, some of you may have noticed that Eloise owes a great deal to Vicky… and Sir John definitely left his mark on Lord Vaughn.
