Deanna Raybourn Books In Order – Conclusion

Deanna Raybourn writes excellent historical fiction and historical mystery series and I can highly recommend them. The characters in both series are well developed and the books are very atmospheric.

Her first contemporary mystery, Killers Of A Certain Age, was an instant New York Times bestseller and a wonderful romp of a mystery/thriller with some humor.

  1. I truly love the the connection between Veronica and Stoker. The thought of the series ending actually brought me to tears last evening. They love each other from all appearances in the books. Yet they don’t want to be more than “ friends “. Stoker has such internal pain that to belie that truth of care between them is unforgivable.

    1. Hi Elizabeth, I have no idea. Whisper of Jasmine is just a prequel novella, and I only see it in Kindle version. Maybe they decided not to do audio for the novella.
