And welcome to the website of Alice Duncan Not to mention Anne Robins, Emma Craig, and Rachel Wilson I'm Alice Duncan, Anne Robins, Emma Craig, Rachel Wilson and even Jon Sharpe a couple of times. Alice, Anne, Emma, and Rachel all write historical novels. Jon writes Westerns. Back when I was young and didn't know any better, I wanted to write the Great American Novel. After life kicked me around for a few decades I realized that, not only do I not want to WRITE the Great American Novel, I don't even want to READ it. What I crave from my reading material is to be taken away from life's toils for a couple of hours. Entertainment is what I aim to provide with my novels -- and I consider it a most worthwhile goal.

Read an Excerpt from HIGH SPIRITS
"Alice Duncan is one of the finest authors in the business today, and her alter ego, Daisy, is one of the best heroines. In High Spirits, Daisy’s husband, Billy, an invalid from WWI is becoming more reliant on narcotics for his pain, which causes both Daisy and the reader heartbreaking concern. Sam Rotondo is still coming by often to play cards with Billy, and is a true friend. Other familiar faces are present and accounted for, adding to the enjoyment of this story. Hopefully, Daisy’s next adventure will be coming out soon." Betty Cox from Reader to Reader
"Alice Duncan deftly sweeps us back to 1921 with a fascinating story populated with a cast of characters reminiscent of many family trees--skeletons and all. Readers will either want to invite these delightful but quirky characters home for Sunday dinner, or lock them in an asylum to protect the family name!" Deb Stover, Award-Winning Author
Alice's characters quickly become friends, and you're rooting with them to the end. All I can say is when's the next book out? Someone ought to make this book a movie!" Regina Scott, best-selling author
"Alice Duncan’s talent for outstanding characterization is evident in her new semi-paranormal mystery, High Spirits. Written in the first person, Daisy Gumm Majesty comes alive on the pages of this book which is set in 1921 in the days of prohibition." Mary Montague Sikes from Reader to Reader (author of Eagle Rising and Secrets by the Sea)
"HIGH SPIRITS is a fun romp through post-World War I America, with an engaging, spunky heroine who isn't afraid to say what she thinks, or step in to right a few wrongs. Once you get to know Daisy and her family of characters, you'll be rooting for her with every turn of a page. Picture Meg Ryan as Daisy, amidst the backdrop of speakeasies, tommy guns and bathtub gin, and you'll have some idea how much fun this story is. Don't wait another minute to pick up your copy!" Elizabeth Delisi, author of Holiday Hearts
