The clues are there. He just doesn’t remember where he left them.
For readers who love richly atmospheric historical mysteries with emotional weight, the Constantine Capers Series delivers unforgettable characters and slow-burn suspense.
This is for the mystery lover who wants more than clever twists—someone who craves why as much as who. With a detective who wakes up each day with no memory, and a heroine piecing together the past, it’s a story about trust, trauma, and what it means to remember who you are.
Egregious Airship Accident! In preparation for its maiden voyage, the dirigible designated as the Daydreamer met a tragic fate at ten o’clock this morning. Authorities are on the scene attempting to determine the cause of the explosion that killed and injured several crew members and passengers. Of interest are the deaths of one of the inventors of the steam powered dirigible, Octavian Blayse and his wife Rose Blayse.
The Pennington Perplexity
Book One
Aspiring artist Mira Blayse isn’t concerned with upper-tier society or conforming to Victorian expectations—she has a murder to solve. At least, she thinks it was murder. Her parents’ deaths in 1870 couldn’t have been by accident, but the more she investigates, the less she seems to find. Sitting at a café, she sketches a mysterious stranger, not realizing that she’s penciling in the features of the man who will help her solve the case once and for all.
Byron Constantine lives day-to-day, desperately trying to hold onto his memories, only for them to slip through his fingers. Some days, he doesn’t even know that he’s lost four years of his life. As he manages to continue his work as a private detective, he realizes that maybe he doesn’t need his memory after all. That is until he wants to remember Mira Blayse.
With her keen eye for detail and his remarkable deductive skills, the two become entangled in a criminal investigation. As they uncover the secrets of the past, they must work together to stop history from repeating itself again.

Meet Natalie Brianne
Natalie grew up steeped in British mystery—from Poirot to Lord Peter Wimsey, she learned early to love a good twist and a cleverly placed clue. Some of her fondest memories involve curling up with her family, trying to out-solve the detectives on screen. When a friend floated the idea of an amnesiac investigator, she couldn’t resist—especially once Byron Constantine walked into her mind, top hat and all.
While writing the first book, Natalie lived in London—walking the same streets her characters do, even staying at 27 Palace Court, the detective’s future home. Her time there brought a tactile authenticity to the fog, cobblestones, and candlelight of 1888.
The Constantine series blends historical intrigue with emotional resonance. Mira’s grief and search for answers mirror Natalie’s own journey after losing her father as a teenager. In weaving mystery with memory, trauma with truth, Natalie creates stories where every revelation feels personal—and every clue is a step toward healing.
