Strings
By Sheryle Criswell
{Historical: Holocaust}
This is fifteen-year-old Hanna Berkenski's journey from her family's tiny apartment in the Warsaw Ghetto, through the awful night she spends in a cattle-car with her mother and sister, to her three years as a violinist in the welcoming orchestra at Auschwitz.
The real horror begins as the train arrives at Auschwitz. Hanna's first impression is of a warm welcome because of the flowers and sunshine and music. She has been told she will be spending the next few weeks in a "work" camp until her family is reunited and relocated. Even the snowflakes make her feel a sense of relief...until she realizes they are not snowflakes at all, but ash.
Hanna is taken to Building 11, where the "welcoming" orchestra women are housed. Her red hair is shaved, her arm tattooed, and she is given a blue skirt, a white blouse, and a violin. She is also given a gray dress, which she wears when she is not performing. And then she spends three years in Hell.

The Adventures of Mycroft Holmes
By Sam Bonnamy
Book 1: The Other Mr. Holmes
Queen Victoria's personal diary goes missing, and an equerry is murdered. The murderer must be found, and the Queen's comments on some of her ministers must never reach the Continental press. Mycroft Holmes, Sherlock's elder brother, is the man to find the murderer and save Her Majesty's reputation. His mistress Anna, herself a crack shot, joins Mycroft in an attempt to keep the damning volume out of the hands of dastardly foreign agents.
"The Adventure of the Royal Revelations" is the first of three stories in "The Other Mr Holmes". In the second, Mycroft and Anna set out to save the reputation of a leading actress and keep the unique gemstone, the Flame of Natal, from the grasp of audacious thieves, while in the last story they cross swords with one of the deadliest enemies of Mycroft's brother--Colonel Sebastian Moran.

Book 2: Mycroft Up Against It
Once again Anna and Mycroft Holmes tear through London in hansom cabs as they pursue three further adventures set in the eighteen-eighties. Mycroft puffs and pants his way through his cases, applying not only his keen mind but also, in one case, the precepts of the Kama Sutra, while Anna hobnobs with Buffalo Bill, Henry Irving and Oscar Wilde. In "The Deadwood Stage" an anarchist threatens mayhem at Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show and Anna finds herself having to impersonate Miss Annie Oakley before the Prince of Wales.
Anna is accused of committing murder during a performance at the Lyceum Theatre. Henry Irving and Ellen Terry believe in her innocence, but will Inspector Athelney Jones? The answer lies in "Murder At The Lyceum".
"The Green-painted Door" is the site of a hideous slaying in Wimbledon. Oscar Wilde may exercise his scornful wit, but Mycroft Holmes is roused to action again. His privately-printed copy of the Kama Sutra (translated by Sir Richard Burton) stimulates another kind of action as Anna has every reason to know.

Mr. Richard Harding is an eligible bachelor who has his heart set on marrying his lifelong friend and neighbor, Miss Georgiana Rowland. However, they have been good friends for so long that, when he finally screws up his courage and proposes to her, Georgie thinks he is merely teasing!
Georgiana has good reason to be so distracted. Her younger sister is about to be launched into society, and most of the work and worry falls on Georgie. Also, despite her mother's furious command, she has befriended the scandalous Lady Shipton, which brings both blessings and chaos to the Rowland family and to their kind uncle, Sir Henry. Worse for Mr. Harding, Lady Shipton's charming stepson takes a strong liking to Georgie.
Mr. Harding keeps proposing, again and again, while still trying to support Georgie in her trials. But is it possible for such a good friendship to turn into love?

Book 2: The Lazy Bachelor
Mr. Peregrine Tyndall has often been called the laziest man in London. But he is stirred to the enormous effort of matchmaking when a hunting accident suffered by his cousin, Lord Shipton, makes him realize that he stands in real danger of inheriting an earldom--with all its responsibilities. In his opinion, the perfect girl to marry his cousin and give the earldom another heir than himself would be their childhood friend, Portia Freestone.
Mr. Tyndall doesn't know what formidable obstacles lay before him, however, when he joins a house party at the earl's country home with this match on his mind. In the first place, his normally obliging friend Portia has a secret. She has no wish to marry the earl--she likes him very well, but the man she secretly wishes to marry is Perry himself. An even bigger problem is Miss Frances Armitage. She and her little sister Eleanor had been left in Perry's guardianship, a duty he had benignly and completely neglected. But now Miss Armitage, furious, is about to descend on Lakeford Hall to demand that Perry take up his duties in a responsible manner, even if she has to force him to do it.
Thrust into just the sort of efforts he dislikes most, Mr. Tyndall tries his best to cope, and in the attempt, gets a great deal more than he bargained for.

Book 3: Cecilia and the Rake
Unpleasant experience has given Miss Cecilia Rowland a strong aversion to rakes, even one so fascinating and gentlemanlike as Lord Ravenshill.
She does her best to ignore his existence, but Fate keeps bringing them together. Even deep in the country, visiting the home of her mother's betrothed husband, Cecilia finds herself in the company of Lord Ravenshill. Not only is he a neighbor of Mr. Clarke's, but Cecilia's stepsister-to-be, Kitty, develops a tendre toward Mr. Guy Dorne, Ravenshill's best friend.
The Viscount Ravenshill is not the sort of man to regret his past, even when he finds himself unaccountably fascinated by the lovely Miss Rowland. He looks on his friend Guy's growing attachment to Kitty Clarke with amusement and resolutely ignores the promptings of his own traitorous heart.
The grim past which made him a ruthless rake also makes him a completely unsuitable match for an innocent girl like Cecilia Rowland.
But when Cecilia and Kitty go to London for the Season, the same Fate that threw Cecilia toward Ravenshill takes an unexpected twist that endangers the loves of both girls.

Wilhelmina
By Daphne Saxby Taylor
{Historical: Australia}
"I shall look forward with delight to working with you," stated the great Frederick Chopin, when Wilhelmina played for him. The Grand Duchess had offered her patronage. Was she set for an illustrious career as a concert pianist?
But pressures brought to bear by the social and political state of the country; the opportunities of migration to far away New South Wales and the memories of the French Revolution only 50 years ago, bear heavily on Wilhelmina's father.
Her indomitable spirit rises above all the disappointments and hardships that follow, they serving only to bring out in her, faith and courage, which would be further tested by her loving but sometimes wayward husband. All contribute to a quite amazing outcome.
WILHELMINA tells the story of faith, tough love and forgiveness--and their power to fulfill dreams in a totally unexpected way.
