Annamaria on Monday My current WIP progress - A Death on the Lord's Day (Vera and Tolliver 4) - is with my publisher, and I am awaiting editorial feedback. In the interim, I have been touring around the New York Metropolitan area hawking Vera and Tolliver 3 - The Blasphemers. And I am beginning to ruminate about Vera and Tolliver 5, the first of the series that will take place during WWI. Looking for inspiration, I went back over some photos from a research trip. In 2014, I had the privilege of accompanying a small, fortunate group on a tour of the WWI battle field of Kenya, under the auspices of of Old Africa Magazine. As part of that week, we went in search of a church and a house that figured in the life an amazing and scary character named Vladimir Verbi, who plays a colorful part in the war between British East Africa and German East Africa. I will tell more about him soon. In the meanwhile, here is a glance at the incredible scenery of the peaceful Bura Valley where Africans farm terraces and live surrounded by splendid vistas. In the highlands, it was nothing at all like any place else in Africa I had ever visited.  |
