Welcome!
If you’re here you must be mystery fan, which means you have something in common with several U.S. presidents and, of course, me. Problem solvers at heart, we can’t resist the challenge of a tricky plot.
“Escapism for the control freak,” (Craig Fehrman*) is another way of describing my favorite genre—female detectives and amateur sleuths—and me again, I’m afraid. Real life seldom turns out how I think it should, so I've resorted to writing mysteries that do. Lucky 13 on pre-order soon.
The first 2 Lauren Beck crime novels won Hon. Mention in genre fiction from Writer's Digest. FOR BETTER OR WORSE and STRANGER DANGER became Finalists in the National Indie Excellence Awards fpr Mysteries.
STRANGER DANGER, also achieved Silver Medalist in the Global Book Awards.
You'll find that both of my series characters take crime very seriously - but never themselves.
