Coming from a long line of ancestors who loved all things pertaining to reading, writing, and learning, it was only natural for her to tackle the task of completing a novel. As an avid reader who especially enjoys the history of crime, she weaves interesting facts among her characters and locations.  She wrote her book because she loves to read and wants to entertain with her stories.
