About the author

Hello, thank you for visiting my author page and thank you even more if you’ve bought, read or listened to one of my books. I really hope you enjoyed it.
My books are dual timeline stories featuring the lost voices of women, both real and imaginary. The Marquess House Saga reimagines the stories of the women from Henry VIII’s court through to the Civil War, telling a tale of secrets, mysteries and intrigues which ripple through into the lives of the present day characters. While, The Wind Chime, The Music Makers and The Forgotten Palace focus on the lives of Victorian women and how their stories connect to the 21st century characters.

She has become my favorite author, I'm reading "Wind chime" now and can't wait for the next one already. I read a lot and her books are so very good and filled with mystery in two different time periods. So glad I found this author. No one will be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's a shorter story but just as brilliant.
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseShorter though it was,it was no less beautiful and like the others before,thrilling and clean.(After reading the first book and being able to read a huge story that didn't rely on bed scenes to fill it out I was in for all of these.)
Again, the clear details of the subjects,I felt as though I was inside these stories when I read them,(felt on edge when they were around the king). I thoroughly enjoyed every word, now only one left to read,I can't wait to see how this is going to end up. 🤗

4.0 out of 5 stars Great short story for fans of the series
Format: KindleVerified PurchasePerdita and Piper Rivers are now settled into their new life at Marquess House, but a violent storm threatens to uncover more secrets. In this short story, following on from the previous three books, what new mysteries are about to be revealed?
I really enjoyed reading the Marquess House trilogy and so, while I was pre-ordering Alexandra Walsh’s next book, The Wind Chime, I was thrilled to see that there was also a short story about Perdita and Piper that I hadn’t yet read. This does contain some spoilers, so if this sounds like your sort of book, it would definitely be worthwhile reading the others first.
Told in two time frames, we learn of a convent in 1486 where the bones of a suspected saint have been discovered. Before a sacred shrine can be erected, Mother Superior, Sister Non, knows she has to intervene to prevent her secret from being revealed. Just who do the bones belong to? This story is taken up in the present day by the Rivers sisters, as they aim to uncover the truth behind a centuries-old ghost story.
The Weeping Lady Conspiracy moves on at a good pace and is a perfect read for anyone who enjoys dual time frame novels. I am also pleased to see that the trilogy has now become a saga and I am eagerly awaiting the, as yet, unnamed fourth book in the series.
