Middle Kingdom, actually.  The series is set in the mythical town of Charter, IL
aka The Barony of Applebee (sp?).  There are 5 books to the series and they all
mention the SCA in some context somewhere in the story.  Her website states that
she has book 6 and book 7 in progress.  Not sure when that was last updated.
:-(  The last book (#5) takes place at an arabian horse show and the detective's
wife wants to use a period saddle and garb for the fashion parade(?). (Her
persona is 14th century England.) The producer says okay, but she won't win
because it's not "harem pants and sequins".  <grin>

who has all 5 books and is waiting impatiently for more.
