Thank you for visiting my page. I'm a member of Mystery Writers of America, Sisters In Crime, Willamette Writers, IBPA, and Oregon Writers Colony. With my debut novel, Shallow Waters, I introduced a thrilling new mystery series set in my native state of Oregon, alongside our rugged Pacific coast. The second installment, Midnight Beach, continued the excitement with a story based on a real-life crime. Code: Tsunami, the third book in the series, is - I desperately hope - NOT based on a real-life future event. Dark Sand, the fourth installment, picks up the action one year after the earthquake and tsunami. Phantom Cove, book 5 in the series and my personal favorite (so far!) was published in late 2022. It was followed by bestselling Mourning Bay in 2023. Cold Rock Island, book 7, will publish in May, 2024. Book 8 is underway, and I hope to complete it by late 2024. Born in the southwest corner of Oregon in a small town not unlike my fictional Port Stirling, I now live in Estacada, Oregon, with my charming husband, Steve, a technology entrepreneur. Before turning to writing novels, I enjoyed a long career in corporate communications in such varied industries as tourism, healthcare, and sports. Since 2000, I've owned Paris Communications, a marketing, PR, and publishing firm. Like many Oregonians, I'm passionate about gardening, and earned Master Gardener status. A true plant nerd, I'm obsessively zealous about growing vegetables, although with 34 roses and counting, one could also make the case that I'm a tiny bit obsessed with roses, too. I love the outdoors, particularly in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, and I'm happiest hiking, playing bad golf, and enjoying the beaches, rivers, and lakes. A determined, avid traveler since my teens, I've visited dozens of countries around the world. While every place has its charms if you look hard enough, I include Scotland, the Galapagos Islands, Switzerland, Maui, and France’s Dordogne region among my favorites. High on my post-Covid travel list currently are the Shetland Islands, Japan, and New Zealand. Thank you for reading!
