She's taught language arts and creative writing, worked for a publisher, an airline, an opera company. Like Faulkner's Dilsey, she's seen the best and the worst, the first and the last. Through it all, and to understand it somewhat, she writes.Her characters yearn. They love, they fight. And they never, ever give up. And another thing, they usually find a body.

The second book in the series, MISSING BRANDY, published September 2014, and WHISKEY'S GONE completes a trilogy. The working title of the fourth is DEAD IN BROOKLYN, publishing soon.
