Never one to go
half way, Kate Christensen, Marge's daughter, trades rain rich Seattle for the dry mountains of
Arizona to escape the stress of work and personal problems. She expects to
settle into a quiet life and spend time with her aging grandmother. Before she
has a chance to start that life, a death in the motel room next to hers and an
unsympathetic police chief propel her into a murder investigation. Her
grandmother’s increasing health issues cause Kate to bounce back and forth
between her grandmother and the murder victim’s widow while trying to figure
out the complexities of her own life. Maybe her previous stress wasn’t so bad.
Watch for the release of Katie Comes to Cactus (working title, might change). I expect to be in Michigan in October. If the book is out I'll have a launch party somewhere on the weekend of the 6th. Launch in Arizona depends on when the book is available.
