Praise for

A MARKED MAN

“Intriguing . . . Rich in period detail . . . A successful novel appealing to those who enjoy Revolutionary War historical mystery.”

Historical Novels Review

“The story line is fast paced and the investigation super, but it is meeting the prime real persona and fictional characters representing the divided times in Boston in 1774 that makes A Marked Man a strong late-eighteenth-century thriller.”

Midwest Book Review

“Hamilton breathes vivid life into her historical characters . . . A satisfying read for mystery lovers and American history buffs alike.”

Kirkus Reviews

“Well crafted . . . Hamilton once again brings to life colonial Boston on the brink of revolution, vividly portraying such noted patriots as Sam Adams, leader of the Sons of Liberty; silversmith Paul Revere; and Dr. Joseph Warren.”

Publishers Weekly

Praise for

THE NINTH DAUGHTER

“An exciting new mystery series set in revolutionary Boston. Abigail Adams could become my favorite historical sleuth.”

—Sharon Kay Penman, author of Devil’s Brood

“Barbara Hamilton plunges us into colonial Boston, where we walk beside the legendary Abigail Adams as she tries to find justice for a murdered young woman while also helping with the birthing pangs of a new nation.”

—Victoria Thompson, author of Murder on Sisters’ Row

“[An] exceptional debut . . . While bringing to life such historical figures as Sam Adams and Paul Revere, Hamilton transports the reader to another time and place with close attention to matters like dress, menus, and the monumental task of doing laundry. Historical fans will eagerly look forward to the next in this promising series.”

Publishers Weekly

“Hamilton . . . has just the right touch to guide the intelligent Abigail through the dangerous shoals of being a patriot while seeing the good side of the colonies’ English rulers. There are no missteps here in what should prove to be a captivating series for all historical fans.”

Library Journal

“The wry repartee between Abigail and John, together with the fact that this clandestine investigation of the murder of loose women would never have made the official record, make Hamilton’s debut believable and gripping.”

Kirkus Reviews

“A deep historical mystery. Based on true activities of that time, Ms. Hamilton weaves a tale that could have actually taken place . . . A finely written first in a new series story with a surprise ending. I am eager to see what comes next.”

The Romance Readers Connection

“A super Revolutionary War–era . . . amateur sleuth.”

Midwest Book Review

“The story line provides a deep look at Boston as rebellion is in the air. Fans will want to join the tea party hosted by Ms. Hamilton with guests being a who’s who of colonial Massachusetts.”
