It's a baker's dozen! Don't let triskaidekaphobia keep you away from my 13th murder mystery, coming this June! My favorite so far!

I'll be on a fun panel discussing characters on Sunday, February 23rd at 11 A.M. Mountain time, Noon Central, 1:00 P.M. East Coast time. But all three dates are filled with terrific readings and panels by talented authors, so save the date to watch and listen

Fun hike with friends today

No wonder I felt a bit queasy, lol. My next book will be out in June, lucky number 13!

My dad's 100th birthday today, shown here with his grandmother, my great grandmother. He taught me integrity, kindness, and respect for all living things. He also gave me my corny sense of humor :-) I miss him.

I just love this! A reader by the name of Eric Nash e-mailed me these photos of a model of a detective's office that he built. Notice the poster by the door. It's the cover of one of my mysteries, "Death Overdue". Thank you, Eric! Posted here with his permission.

Put a little mystery under your tree or in your stockings this holiday season. Twelve books for the twelve days of Christmas!

My latest, "Fatal Foul Play", made the CrimeReads list of twelve New Crime Novels to read this fall and winter 🙂 crimereads.com/12-new-crime...

Love haircut day
