Behind the Story

"Hunting" was written in response to my extreme frustration with Georgette Heyer's Regency Buck. Much as I love Heyer's books, on occasion she takes a promising young lady, and just...foils her at every turn. My need for a heroine capable of getting herself out of her own scrapes produced Ash Lenthard, who does not so much kick ass, as tap-dance across the heads of her enemies...

I also wanted to write a fantasy murder mystery, and write a story about a herbalist. All these things combined, and immediately mutated, to become Hunting.
