Face Down Across the Western Sea is book seven in the Face Down series featuring sixteenth-century gentlewoman, herbalist, and sleuth, Susanna, Lady Appleton. Long out of print in hardcover, this is the first paperback edition. It has been newly edited by the author.
When Queen Elizabeth wants to prove England has an ancient claim to the New World on the far side of what was then known as the Western Sea, she orders a group of scholars to find evidence of early settlements. Susanna is drawn into intrigue and danger through her friendship with Sir Walter Pendennis, who is hosting the summit at his Cornwall manor house. When one of the learned gentlemen is murdered, everyone is a suspect.
Original, beguiling, and eminently readable. Kirkus
