Praise for the Sage Adair Historical Mystery Series of the Pacific Northwest
Most Recent Review . . .
Adair is a likable and realistic anchor for this well-written, smartly plotted historical mystery series that blends real and fictional people and events. The series is still accumulating a loyal fan base, but each novel brings it closer to the wide acclaim it deserves. — David Pitt, American Library Association Booklist Review, 2014 May Issue

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle had London. George Simeon had Paris. S. L. Stoner has Portland in the early 1900's. Her detective, Sage Adair, is back in the third historical mystery set in Stumptown’s lumber mills and seedy saloons. It’s a series that’s only getting better. Sunday Oregonian
