Book excerpt: The Gypsy Talisman LORETTA WHITNEY NEEDS A RICH HUSBAND. AND FAST! Set in Victorian England, this absorbing story of a lovely young widow caught in a web of deceit, lies and murder will thrill fans of best-selling romantic suspense novelists Victoria Holt, Elizabeth Peters, Mary Stewart and Phyllis Whitney. In 1861, nineteen-year-old Loretta Whitney discards her widow's weeds just in time to attend her godfather's birthday ball at a country manor in Kent. There she hopes to find an unsuspecting rich man to marry, before her deceased husband's gambling debts come to light. If she fails to make a match, Loretta will be forced to give up her life in society and become someone's governess or companion. But then a gypsy fortune teller warns Loretta that she is in grave danger, and gives her a good luck charm. Will it be enough to protect Loretta from the evil stalking closer every minute?
