Biographie de l'auteur

Barbara Brooks Wallace claims not to be a mystery writer, even though she is a two-time winner of the Mystery Writers of America EDGAR award for The Twin in the Tavern and Sparrows in the Scullery. These and her other Victorian mysteries are often described as ?Dickensian?. Peppermints in the Parlor was the first of these, and remains a runaway favorite.
