  1. For the last 40 years, I have lived pretty close to the light industrial area that holds the Baylor compound in Hidden Legacy. The side streets, the toll way exits, the Memorial Villages, the abandoned mall – all of those are on my mental map. (I snicker every time I drive past Jersey Village.)

    The interior lay-out of buildings (once you turn off Clay Road), I know nothing about. That would be a very interesting map if you decided to build it.
    But only if you needed to, not just for the fans in BDH. We have our eyes on the bottom line – books.

  2. Well since your mapping were are delighted to receive …and…where’s the bat cavern since we’re mapping??? Please ????

    TY

  3. Yeah a map!
    I love maps, as well as house floor plans, I could look at them all day*

    😉

    *Yeah, I know I’m weird, it’s okay

    • I have a collection of paperback books and magazines of house floor plans. Not weird at all!!
      ????????????

  4. Now, I feel the need to reread the scene where Sean marks his territory ????

    • When I read that part, I think “hey, at least the trees are getting nitrogen”. Then I laugh to the point tears come out of my eyes. 😀

  5. Last summer, I was homesick for Georgia and started mapping Kate Daniel’s Atlanta as a way to cope with COVID anxiety from work (I work in a hospital). I have all of the locations and corresponding book references but have yet to find a good interactive map to use.

  6. People are saying this would be a great video game. I agree. The player would have to earn stars to have more in super powers.

  7. Thanks for the map. I really love maps, and look forward to the HL map. I hope it is of their new house with all the nooks and grannies, as well as where it is in Houston. Sorry. You’re probably tempted to roll your eyes again, but I am a visual person and love to have maps to visualize things as they happen in your books. It makes it more fun for me. So, thanks again.

    • I don’t know that we want ALL the grannies, one is kind of evil hehe. Definitely saying “all nooks and grannies” from now on, it’s adorable.

      • Guess I’ll have to get my grannies and crannies in their right places. Thanks for saying it’s adorable. I’m 74, and nobody has said that to me for a very long time. Thanks, also, for the funny and informative response.

  9. Heh. I’d pictured Brutus’ to have been further away, but realized I was confusing that with when Dina kills the Ma’avi and drags it past the Pool of Thwarted Love…

  13. Thanks for the map, it’s lovely to see how the authors orient things! (Mom’s take care makes so much more sense now!!!)
    The thing I find absolutely fascinating, is how all of us have read the same thing, and part of the people visualized it exactly as the authors intended to see it, and part of us were firmly convinced that the inn stood on a corner just outside the subdivision somehow. I had somehow thought that the house was oriented a 90 turn to the subdivision so a few things never made sense in my head. 🙂 I love when books have maps to go with, then I don’t get lost! 🙂

  16. This map really is helpful! I’ve read the series many times, but obviously wasn’t paying attention. I thought the inn was inside the subdivision. This…makes more sense.

  17. I REALLY need to see a map of the new housing and business digs. I couldn’t quite picture it, but I am certain I would LOVE IT!!!

  19. Bwah ha ha ha. Thank you, Ilona Andrews for the map. It’s better than Google/ GPS maps which can find my mailbox box but my house. ????

    • Hey Rita

      “The Gertrude Hunt Bed-and-Breakfast sat at the entrance of the Avalon Subdivision, on three acres of land, most of it taken up by the orchard and garden. Several mature oaks shaded the house, and a four foot hedge bordered the lawn along the side facing the street” Andrews, Ilona. Clean Sweep, Innkeeper Chronicles 1. NYLA Publishing 2013. Kindle Edition, Page 9

      So about the same as the concrete wall. Unless it’s grown since hehe.

      Hope this helped 🙂

  21. Love the map! I take umbrage at the low concrete wall that is 4 or 5 feet! At four feet you’d see my disembodied head bouncing along; at five feet

  22. interesting, i did not imagine the long part of the house facing the street.
    In my mind Victorian houses never sit square with the street of newer subdivisions

    • And I cant wait to see what you do next with this series
