"Kathy Morandini had longed to see the beautiful old city of Florence just the way she saw it now - warmed by the golden Italian sun, cradled under the fabled blue sky of spring. But spring and beauty were meaningless. She should have been seeing Florence with her husband Bart; it was his home. Instead, she was alone, haunted by memories of the flaming automobile accident that had been her last view of him, three months before." "Under the name Barbara Michaels, she wrote primarily gothic and supernatural thrillers. Her publisher chose that pseudonym since Mertz had already published one nonfiction book on ancient Egypt, and the publisher did not want Mertz's novels to be confused with her academic work. Under the pseudonym Elizabeth Peters, Mertz published her Amelia Peabody historical mystery series, using a nom de plume drawn from the names of her two children. ".
