RE: Congratulations!
Thank you, Miss Bellatrix and Susan.

I think that most of us on the forum have tons of Lincoln related books, Susan, yet we still keep buying them. Speaking of one of my recent purchases, I am enjoying Hanging Mary very much, especially as it written in the two voices of Nora Fitzpatrick and Mary Surratt. I skipped ahead to the end (I usually don't do that but I already knew the ending) to see how you handled Mary's hanging from her perspective. I liked the line, "Then a muffled clap, like that of a weary playgoer, sounded from the ground below." That brings us back to Ford's Theater on the night of April 14 and it also tells us how exhausted and broken down Mary has become.

I'm looking forward to your new novel on Mary Lincoln and her sister, Emilie.
