About Author

My Thoughts

The Lost Girls by Donna Gowland is about a poet/ investigator named Percy Shelley & Mary Shelley, who was his mistress. One day, while taking a walk in Richmond Park, Percy had abandoned her mid-stroll to most likely go to the tavern. She came upon multiple people, but a scream in the distance drew her attention. She looked in and saw two figures, either in an embrace of passion or fighting, as it was hard for her to tell. Of course, it piqued her interest, so the next day, when it was light out. Percy & Claire went back to the spot where she thought she had seen the people. While poking around in the grass, they found an orange scarf that was very similar in color to the leaves around it. Initially, I was lost as to who these two characters were or what they did besides run from bill collectors & responsibilities; once I got further into the book, I had to find out what happened at the park. This book is part of a series, so if you are like me, getting easily lost when not having some kind of idea of who the characters are, you may want to read in order.
