Elizabeth DeLozier’s sophomore novel is a howling good time. Orphaned Caroline Foster arrives in London broke and desperate, in search of the brother that is her only remaining family—but Charlie is missing and London is awash in terror of Jack the Ripper’s latest spree. Caroline’s only option is to take a job as a maid at the Whitechapel Full Moon Society where her brother was a member and an eclectic band of men hold monthly dinner parties on the full moon—parties that may just be connected to the Ripper’s string of murders. Lush, evocative, suspenseful—I read The Whitechapel Full Moon Society in one sitting.
— Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of The Briar Club
The Whitechapel Full Moon Society manages, like its own members, to be many things at once: it’s as propulsive as a thriller, as dreamy as a poem, as seductive as a beckoning finger. It’s dark alleys, dried blood, rustling silk, and bittersweet letters from lost kin. I stayed up all night to read this one.

Eleanore of Avignon is superb historical fiction.
— All About Romance
DeLozier paints a vivid picture of life on the margins of a medieval city… The result is a gripping portrait of a woman’s bravery in a city on the brink.

A medieval French city. A terrible plague. And a woman born to heal against all odds. In her sumptuous debut novel author Elizabeth DeLozier’s riveting and brilliant young hero is haunted by the beloved lives she could not save, and the many who turn to her in desperate need. With a twin sister whose heart is shattered, and forbidden knowledge and desires of her own, Eleanore of Avignon works alongside the most powerful doctor in all of France in a race against time and a battle against an invincible foe. Twenty-first century readers will be astounded at how little has changed since the Bubonic Plague spread fear, suspicion, political battles, and scientific doubts more than six hundred years ago. We will not soon forget the mysteries and heartfelt bonds that thread through this book, nor the terrible threats that Eleanore strains beneath and works to hide. To be a healer, Eleanore of Avignon risks her own life and the lives of those she loves. Hers is a spellbinding story for the ages.
