Ambrose, Marty: - "Marty Ambrose has been a writer most of her life, consumed with the world of literature whether teaching English and creative writing at Florida Southwestern State College or creating her own fiction. Her writing career has spanned almost fifteen years, and she has eight published novels. The Claire Clairmont historical mysteries build on Marty's background as a Romantics scholar. She loves telling a story - especially if it's a Florentine conspiracy that unfolds in a Downton Abbeyesque setting."
