By day she was Claire Montague, prim, demore housekeeper of Partington Place. By night she wrote the popular Tuscalosa Tom Pardee dime novels. Only she'd written them as a paean to her hero, Tom Partington. To say she was crushed to learn that Tom hated the notoriety the novels had garnered him, nearly crushed Claire.

And unfortunately for her, Detective Sam Rotondo isn’t buying any of it.Sam sees Daisy as a fraud and a nuisance, and he’s not above a bit of blackmail to make use of her questionable talents. But when Daisy takes a peek at Sam’s tarot cards, the tables turn in a way neither of them expects.Now, Daisy must outwit a detective, outmaneuver a high-society scandal, and somehow keep her business—and her sanity—intact.Alice Duncan spent years avoiding what she knew she should be doing—writing—by professionally folk dancing instead. Eventually, her muse won the battle, and she’s been crafting engaging historical cozy mysteries ever since. Now a proud resident of Roswell, New Mexico, Alice enjoys the lack of smog and crowds while spoiling her beloved herd of wild dachshunds.

But even she balks when a notorious speakeasy owner demands a séance to contact his dearly departed—and equally deadly—godfather. Daisy would never set foot in such an establishment.… Except the request comes through her wealthiest client, Mrs. Kincaid, who just so happens to be desperate to save her wayward daughter from the gangster’s clutches.With no polite way to refuse (and a great many reasons to be very, very worried), Daisy finds herself summoning spirits in the back room of a bootlegger’s den—only for the whole thing to go belly-up when the joint is raided by none other than her least favorite detective, Sam Rotondo.Now, Daisy’s got trouble on all fronts. She’s been arrested (which, frankly, is bad for business), Sam insists she spy on the gangsters in exchange for her freedom, and she’s still got to figure out a way to rescue Mrs. Kincaid’s daughter—all while keeping her own hide intact.Alice Duncan spent years avoiding what she knew she should be doing—writing—by professionally folk dancing instead.

A Cooking Class, a Vanishing Student, and a Side of Anarchist Plotting—Just Another Day for Daisy Gumm Majesty—1921, Pasadena, California—Daisy Gumm Majesty, Pasadena’s most charming (and entirely fake) spiritualist-medium, has pulled off plenty of elaborate deceptions—but convincing anyone that she can teach a cooking class might be her biggest con yet.When a well-meaning Salvation Army captain asks Daisy to teach German immigrant women the fine art of American cookery, Daisy, who is barely on speaking terms with her own kitchen, is ready to laugh him right out the door. But before she can refuse, her sense of duty (and mild curiosity) gets the better of her.Armed with a cookbook, an apron, and a healthy dose of skepticism, Daisy steps into the classroom—only for one of her students to mysteriously vanish. Turns out, the lesson this woman needs most has nothing to do with pie crusts and everything to do with dodging an anarchist scheme simmering beneath Pasadena’s polished surface.With Detective Sam Rotondo forever on her case and a whole batch of new trouble bubbling up, Daisy finds herself up to her elbows in more than just flour. And this time, there’s no faking her way out of the mess.Alice Duncan spent years avoiding what she knew she should be doing—writing—by professionally folk dancing instead.

Trouble, Treasure, and a Trip to Egypt—1922, Pasadena, California—Daisy Gumm Majesty has retired her Ouija board—after all, respectable widows don’t go around communing with spirits. But when her best client, Mrs. Pinkerton, offers an absurd sum of money for one more séance, Daisy decides she can pretend to talk to ghosts just one more time.What she didn’t expect was for that séance to lead to an extravagant trip to Egypt, courtesy of Mrs. P’s son and Daisy’s best friend, Harold Kincaid. But no good deed (or in this case, questionable séance) goes unpunished. A casual marketplace purchase lands Daisy in the middle of an antiquities smuggling ring, a criminal conspiracy, and—just her luck—another encounter with the ever-grumpy Detective Sam Rotondo, who seems to have followed her across the world.With a stolen relic in her possession and villains lurking in the shadows, Daisy must summon all her wits (and maybe even a spirit or two) to get out of this mess—preferably without landing in an Egyptian jail.Alice Duncan spent years avoiding what she knew she should be doing—writing—by professionally folk dancing instead. Eventually, her muse won the battle, and she’s been crafting engaging historical cozy mysteries ever since.

Hooded Villains, a Busted Mailbox, and a Spiritualist on the Warpath—1923, Pasadena, California—Pasadena’s own fake spiritualist and reluctant crime-solver, Daisy Gumm Majesty, has tangled with some troublesome clients in her time, but none as vile as the new batch of hooded hooligans stirring up trouble in town.When the Ku Klux Klan targets Joseph Jackson, the long-time gatekeeper for Daisy’s best (and wealthiest) client, Mrs. Pinkerton, things take a dangerous turn. Then Mrs. P starts receiving threatening letters, and a bomb in her mailbox reduces her front gate to rubble. Daisy suspects the Klan is behind it all, but convincing her gruff, no-nonsense detective friend (possibly something more) Sam Rotondo to act fast isn’t easy.As tensions rise and Daisy finds herself on the wrong side of some very nasty people, she realizes she may need more than her wits, her Ouija board, and a few well-placed sarcastic remarks to get out of this mess. Lucky for her, she’s got a detective who might just be willing to save her—if she doesn’t bash in some Klan skulls herself first.Alice Duncan spent years avoiding what she knew she should be doing—writing—by professionally folk dancing instead. Eventually, her muse won the battle, and she’s been crafting engaging historical cozy mysteries ever since.

"A charming tale of a couple of young people in the early 1900''s and the beginning of motion pictures. Complete with romance, peril, and a villain." ~May, Verified ReviewerIt''s 1905, early in the Silent Film era, and orphan Amy Wilkes is "discovered" by producer Martin Tafft at a Pasadena Health Spa. Whisked away to the movie-making set, Amy is glamorized and placed before her leading man: a rugged, oh-so-handsome Arizona cowboy named Charlie Fox.Charlie, another "natural", needs money for his ranch, not the naive attentions of a beautiful starlet no matter how far she turns his head.On screen, sparks fly between Amy and Charlie, as the pair struggle to act like people they''re not. Off screen, they face the scuttling machinations of the other actors and Charlie realizes what Amy truly dreams of--love and security. He offers her both. But first, Amy must open her heart.AWARDS:Romantic Times KISS AwardREVIEWS:"Alice Duncan''s knowledge of the 1900''s film era brings a sparkle to COWBOY FOR HIRE.

The theater crowd has its fair share of secrets, and when the director’s wife takes mysteriously ill, a jittery actress swears someone is trying to kill her, and a cast member’s husband turns up dead, Daisy realizes she’s in for more than missed cues and flubbed lines.With Detective Sam Rotondo juggling an investigation and trying to keep Daisy out of trouble (a truly hopeless endeavor), Daisy must untangle the mystery before opening night turns into closing night—for someone permanently.Alice Duncan spent years avoiding what she knew she should be doing—writing—by professionally folk dancing instead. Eventually, her muse won the battle, and she’s been crafting engaging historical cozy mysteries ever since.
