Welcome! Or as Tito would say, benvenuto. My historical mystery series follows the career of Tito Amato, an 18th-century castrato singer who also has a stellar talent for sleuthing. Enjoy exploring the calli and campi of Venice as Tito follows his nose for justice. Get a taste of Tito's world on my Book Trailer page.

 

"The real accomplishment of Myers is her rendering of 18th-century Venice."

     --Kirkus Reviews on Her Deadly Mischief

                                                                

"Myers sets the stage beautifully, and her Tito Amato is an endearingly sympathetic character whose company should be enjoyed for many more performances."

     --Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine on Cruel Music

 

"An accomplished historical novel that's also a classic country-house mystery."

    --Kirkus Reviews on The Iron Tongue of Midnight
