My cozy debut, A DEADLY BONE TO PICK, is due out from Berkley Publishing Group in 2022! I grew up in Los Angeles and have authored two adult mysteries, CLEMENTINE'S SHADOW and ERASING RAMONA, as well as one young adult adventure, PUNISHMENT SUMMER. My short stories, "The Cookie Crumbles" and "The Devil's Blub," were published in the anthologies The Best Laid Plans and Heartbreaks and Half-Truths respectively. My short story, "The Magic Hour," is slated to be published in the upcoming SinC L.A. anthology, Avenging Angelenos. I also illustrated the children's book Angie's Great Big Beautiful Life: Tales of Angie the Rescue Cat. After losing our home during the 2017 Thomas Fire, my husband and I moved to the beach community of Los Osos along the central coast. When not at my desk or out walking, I can be found in the garden.
