M. S. Spencer Featured in August MFRW Newsletter

 mfrw-logo-border


Please visit the wonderful Marketing for Romance Writers magazine. Just released is the August issue featuring—are your ready?—ME. I’m talking ME...oh, and about Triptych, my romantic suspense set on the Potomac River and The Mason’s Mark, mystery romance set in Old Town Alexandria. Here’s the link:


I’m talking a little about my works-in-progress and my background. Then you’ll be treated to a taste of two of my books:



In the worst first day at work ever, docent Claire Wilding’s carefully rehearsed tour is spoiled by the discovery of a dead body. As she deals with a smitten detective, a hunky Senator, black ops agents, and eccentric mothers, she's learns all about jewels and pennies, renegade Italian Masons, and our first President’s family secrets. Along the way she discovers that first love is not always the right love.

And Triptych:


Take lost masterpieces, brilliant inventors, and stolen prototypes. Add the Three Sisters, Indian spirits who guard the Potomac River. Stir in three sisters and their lovers. Result? Jealousy, sex, genius, larceny and love. Who will end up with whom, and will the Three Sisters take another life as the legend demands?

The Mason’s Mark at the Bingeworthy Book Festival Today



Okay, so today’s the day! The Mason’s Mark: Love & Death in the Tower, makes its debut on N. N. Light’s Book Heaven’s Binge-Worthy Book Festival! 

https://www.nnlightsbookheaven.com/single-post/2019/08/02/The-Mason%E2%80%99s-Mark-Love-Death-in-the-Tower-by-msspencerauthor-is-a-Binge-Worthy-Book-Festival-Pick-romanticsuspense-giveaway




The Mason's Mark arose in part out of a true story. Starting in the 1940s an Italian named Licio Gelli embarked on a lifetime of bizarre scams and crimes. Alternately linked to rightists and leftists, he bilked or used people from Italian politicians, to the Nazis, the Communists, the CIA, even to Juan Peron, dictator of Argentina. His exploits cross the globe and spanned four decades. At last check, he was still alive, in his nineties and writing poetry from prison. In 1996 he was even nominated for the Nobel prize in literature.

Gelli is most famous for founding a Masonic lodge called Propaganda Due, a renegade group that was first dissolved, then reinstated, then erased by the Grand Orient de Italia. He had ensnared many prominent Italians into P2, which ultimately led to several huge scandals.  As the model for the shadowy puppetmaster in The Mason's Mark, I've saddled him with yet another—this time fictional--scandal. But you'll have to find your way through many plot twists and red herrings to discover just what that scandal really is.

Enjoy an excerpt at the Binge-Worthy festival on me!
