"I stuck as closely as possible to the known facts and tried to see their stories through fresh eyes. As these people are no longer in a position to defend themselves, it is the least they deserve."
YES! YES! YES! Even in historical fiction, I'm leery of made-up crap, as I don't have time (or usually inclination) to separate fact from fiction--I have my own research (in a different century) to conduct and sift and judge. Having known Susan Higginbotham for several years online, and read her blogs and books, I'm grateful for her integrity of research and presentation.
