Welcome to a safe haven! I write mysteries about endings and new beginnings. They’re set in fictional villages, but the essence of these books is real. Staying a rough course, getting unstuck, starting over–I’ve experienced these truths again and again.

This website offers a bit of the fuel that boosts the spirits of my amateur sleuths and their friends, one which coincidently sustains me through good or bad times. I hope it helps you too.

Visit my Greek recipe page and enjoy a sweet or savoury taste of the glendi (celebratory) life. Please feel free to add your cooking tweaks and spread the comfort food love. Need a new perspective or a pick-me-up? The Silver Linings page might do the trick. And thanks very much for dropping by!
