Welcome. You’ve either stumbled or deliberately delved into the website of a Pacific Northwest writer who’s spent most of her adult life studying crime and criminal behaviour.

For more years than I want to admit, I’ve been working on two separate amateur sleuth mysteries, one featuring public transit security cop Casey Brisseden; the other featuring former Canada Revenue Agency tax auditor, Alex Bellamy.

I’ve also published fifty short stories over the years. Some of the pieces are mystery, but I’ve also written mainstream, humorous, and even a little horror now and then.

Assuming that you’re as busy as I am with family, jobs, volunteering, and occasional bouts of housecleaning, I’ve kept this site short and simple, I hope. Enjoy.
