“Crime is terribly revealing. Try and vary your methods as you will, your tastes, your habits, your attitude of mind, and your soul is revealed by your actions.” – Agatha Christie

Welcome, mystery novel fans! Since I was a little girl and my mother shared her collection of Nancy Drew mysteries, I fell in love with the genre. I devoured detective stories from the masters of the mystery writing craft: Agatha Christie’s Poirot, George Simenon’s Inspector Maigret, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, Ann Cleeves’ Detective Inspector Vera Stanhope, Michael Connelly’s Police Detective Hieronymus Bosch, Colin Dexter’s Detective Inspector Morse, and so many more. I am now returning the favor to these giants of the mystery genre with the creation of protagonists who tackles murders, mayhem and mysteries. I hope my stories will thrill mystery readers for years to come.
