Patricia Elliott

I've just finished reading Murkmere a well-written (youngish) YA novel with an interesting premise. It's a bit like a gothic romance, with a very young heroine, set in a world where people worship -- and fear -- good and evil pantheons of birds. I'd like to get my hands on the sequel, which looks to be even more to my taste (Dickensian overtones, orphan adrift in a great heartless city).

Has anyone else read anything by Patricia Elliott?
