Description

PerfectBound e-book extra: "Donovans IV: A Conversation with Elizabeth Lowell": With the conclusion of her Donovans quartet, Elizabeth Lowell discusses its origin and inspiration, with particular emphasis on *Midnight in Ruby Bayou*.Faith Donovan is famous for crafting exquisite jewelry studded with fabulous gems. But the dangerous task of acquiring the rare rubies she needs for her art has taught Faith to be wary of anyone outside her own family -- especially someone like Owen Walker, an adventurer with an intimate knowledge of the ruby trade and man's murderous greed. But now necessity has thrown the them together, as they venture into the shadowy world of the wealthy and mysterious Montegeaus in search of quality stones.
