    About this ebook

    This is a collection of short stories set at differing periods, starting with a murder story set in pre-historic times, a dramatic encounter during the English Civil War, and some of the adventures of Tilly Price, a little maid working at 'the big house' during the Edwardian era, who is a huge fan of Sherlock Holmes.

    Author

    Rosemary Sturge

    I've been making up stories since I was a child, in fact my parents thought I would grow up to be a novelist, because I used to climb into their bed on Saturday mornings, aged three, and entertain them with long sagas about the adventures of my toys. My teachers were less impressed with my talent for fiction, probably because I wanted to write stories when they were looking for evidence that I understood facts. Most of my adult life has been devoted to practical things, teaching, organising people, being sensible, but now at last I have time to persue my interest in writing historical fiction.
