Guest post by Jon Land
We are happy to welcome to BLI today beloved and renowned thriller author Jon Land, who is celebrating the release of Pandora’s Temple, the newest addition to his McCracken series, which features the return of its hero after 15 years!

The creation of Evangeline Ramsey, The London List saved her and her ailing father from destitution. But the paper has given Evie more than financial relief. As its publisher, she lives as a man, dressed in masculine garb, free to pursue and report whatever she likes—especially the latest disgraces besmirching Lord Benton Gray.
