Wilder (The Fragrance Shed by a Violet) provides a fresh, entertaining take on one of the lesser-known women of the Bible: Claudia Procula, daughter of the last Oracle of Pythia in Delphi and wife of Lucius Pontius Pilate. Told from their alternating perspectives, the story begins with Claudia recognizing in adolescence that she is gifted with premonitions and a knack for academics. Meanwhile, Lucius distinguishes himself in battle as a standout soldier and is named Roman tribune by the end of his first campaign. Lucius moves quickly up the ranks, but when he is promoted to Prelate of Judea he realizes he is unable to control the unrest of the land he now must govern.
I'm loving the whole series, mainly because I'm loving the characters and feel like I know them as ethical, moral people, and consequently care for them... The mixture of the excellent writing, together with the world of the pharmaceutical industry, and merged with the criminal element of various types, makes Wilder's books an awesome series with formidable characters that are unequaled in my experience.

Wow, Lin Wilder has created a set of characters that have won, I am sure, the concern and care of all readers of this series. First, Wilder has a number of intelligent female scientists that are making groundbreaking discoveries
GAYLE PACE Amazon Reviewer: Bad things never happen one at a time. In Dr. Lindsey McCall’s case, drugs are missing and two women kidnapped. If that isn’t bad enough, one of the women may be dead. That’s not the way to start your day. Late one night a phone call created so many questions but no answers.
Charged with a crime so horrifying, ex-state trooper Gabe faces the legal battle of his life. The crime in question, sexual assault of a six-year-old girl. The girl, the daughter of Gabe’s ex, Sam. Will the charges hold up, or will is ex, Sam have her, revenge? “Do you Solemnly Swear,” by Lin Wilder, is a perfect thriller with political implications, and the perfect nuance to the unadulterated political scène of the day.

This is not an easy book to love, but I’m grateful to Lin Wilder for tackling this important topic… I consider it a must-read… For legal trial novel enthusiasts, you don’t want to miss this one!
is a perfect thriller with political implications: Charged with a crime so horrifying, ex-state trooper Gabe faces the legal battle of his life.
Amazon Reviewer: Wow. Just wow. This book kept me on the edge of my seat with every passing page.
Wilder is a gifted writer, whose knowledge of the medical industry is apparent from the first page. Intricately-woven, she takes the reader deep into the characters and circumstances so the reader is left wondering what he/she would do if that happened to them. If I had to sum my feelings in four words, I’d say this book is gripping, honest and unexpectedly touching. My Rating: 5+ stars Source: N N Light Amazon Reviewer

Critique: A fine balance between suspense and emotional character development, The Fragrance Shed by a Violet is a murder mystery that reaches deep into a primal fear – cold, premeditated death striking victims at their most vulnerable, in an institution meant for healing. A page-turner to the end, The Fragrance Shed by a Violet is a “must-read” for connoisseurs of the genre. It should be noted for personal reading lists that The Fragrance Shed by a Violet is also available in a Kindle edition ($7.19).
My personal favorite for 2016! The author has used her considerable medical expertise to create a medical thriller like no other. The story runs smoothly from event to event and quickly becomes a page-turner!
Wilder presents us strong, driven, intelligent female characters like McCall and investigative reporter Kate Townsend. As the foil to those strong women, we also spend time with Lindsey’s sister, Paula a nurse with a troubled past who proves prominent in the direction Lindsey’s life takes.
made its debut in December of 2018. I, Claudia won the Pinnacle Award for best in historical fiction for 2019. This newest genre of good fiction books to read was resulted in some excellent reviews to date.
Here is what Feathered Quill had to say:
For anyone looking for one of those easy, cozy reads, this is not it. For someone who is looking for a fantastic plot of the ancient world filled with suspense, romance, and history, this is definitely the book you want. Not only is this a well-researched book that allows the reader to actually feel as if they are walking the streets in Judea and living within this realm, it’s also a book that does not avoid controversy. It simply is a plot so well-crafted that the controversy comes second to the characters you will never forget.
