Embracing the Fool: A Cassie Thornton Mystery

Prof. Cassie (Cassandra) Thornton's mother left the family when her daughter was just eight years old to return to the Gypsy life in Europe. In this first book of the series, Cassie is starting her second year in a teaching position at New York University, trying to live a quiet academic life in a new city. She has secrets, but she is innocent of the murder she stumbles upon in the opening scene.

Cassie is funny and fresh--imagine Janet Evanovich's bail bondswoman Stephanie Plum with a Ph.D. Her give-and-take with NYPD Detective Tyler Friday is priceless, and their relationship takes off when Cassie's past comes knocking at the door in book two, Freeing the Magician.

The series is quick and fast-paced. with a bit of romance stirred in and a soup on of the exotic when Cassie allows herself to test the skills she has inherited from her mother.
