Somewhere in England, in the mid 19th century, a handsome but disreputable man is hired to assault a young woman. This ill-conceived plan immediately falls to ruins when he attacks the wrong person--an angry young lady with a fondness for violence, who is not afraid to speak her mind, at length. Discovering that there is much more afoot than first meets the eye, the most unlikely duo become improbable and uneasy partners as they seek to confront the plot's evil mastermind. Their plans may not proceed as expected, but they may still manage to escape a night neither will forget alive, and perhaps even together. A slightly dark Victorian anti-romance in 10,000 words, Ill Met by Gaslight is a touching if disturbing tale of ego, arrogance, and familial violence sure to entertain and delight young and old alike.

"Kurland has made Moriarty more interesting than Doyle ever made Holmes." Isaac Asimov London, 1887, and a vicious killer stalks the gas-lit streets of the capital. With a particular penchant for the blue-blooded aristocracy, he is leaving lordly corpses behind locked doors, and high society is in uproar. Scotland Yard call in the great Sherlock Holmes to hunt down the murderer, but even he is unable to bring the monster to justice. Several more noble throats are slit before the Yard turn to the one man who might be able to solve the bloody crimes: the Napoleon of Crime, Professor James Moriarty, ably assisted by American journalist Benjamin Barker, and the redoubtable Miss Cecily Perrine. However, Moriarty has his own unique methods of fighting evil, and he and Sherlock Holmes make for the most reluctant of allies... PRAISE FOR THE MORIARTY NOVELS "A deliciously complex and abundantly rewarding novel... Uncommon are the pleasures such writing affords." Publishers Weekly "From whatever celestial outpost he now occupies, Conan Doyle must be beaming his approval." West Coast Review of Books "Sherlock Holmes' most clever adversary... He's a fine sleuth and makes for a compelling protagonist. Splendid stuff." Booklist

A brilliant historical novel set in Victorian London combining a heady mixture of sex, deceit, money and law. ___________________ 'A triumph ... Starling has created a witty and sympathetic heroine whose modern pluck enhances her charm' - Observer 'A sinister tale that Sarah Waters' fans will love' - In Style ____________________ London, 1859. By the time Dora Damage discovers that her husband Peter has arthritis in his hands, it is too late - their book-binding business is in huge debt and the family is on the brink of entering the poorhouse. But Dora proves that she is more than just a housewife and mother. She resolves to rescue her family at any price and finds herself irrevocably entangled in a web of sex, money, deceit and the law. ____________________ 'A scrupulously researched, racy tale ... a worthy addition to the ranks of historical fiction' - Guardian 'A writer of real accomplishment ... Starling had that most important gift for a historical novelist: the ability to wear her research lightly and to integrate every fact into a well-stitched tapestry of plot, symbol and character' - Independent

Within this book lies the story of a London-Welsh Grammar Schoolboy who attended the Edmonton County School in North London between 1938 and 1943. Devoted to extra-mural activities he became practised in the art of damage limitation when required by the teaching staff to account for his manifold shortcomings. There was no irrelevance too great that was not pursued with vigour in preference to that of academic attainment. Bombed and strafed by the enemy a fertile imagination turned to deeds of derring-do yet to come; heroic deeds to be engaged upon, varying over time, according to the film of the week. The schoolboy analyst examines, in relation to those times, family, war, education, religion, agriculture and personalities; even sex is touched upon, but tastefully!

Everyone has a limit. It’s a six-hour flight from New York City to Los Angeles. For Maddie Goodwright and her mom, it’s six hours that will change their lives as they leave behind broken relationships and shattered dreams. But a new school, a new home, and a new group of friends can’t heal the wounds of the past. To move forward, Maddie will have to reinvent herself. When Maddie’s step-cousins take her to the local underground fight club, it’s only a matter of time before boxer Hayden Walker catches her eye. Strong, powerful, and confident—he’s everything Maddie isn’t, but definitely wants to be. Convincing Hayden to train her is hard, not falling for him will be even harder. As Maddie transforms both inside and out of the ring, her past returns with a vengeance determined to ruin everything. Except this time he’s not ready for her to face him head on.
