About This Author
I was born and raised in Wisconsin, but
think I’m a European. After spending my senior year of high school in
Germany, I developed a bad case of wanderlust that is yet to be cured.
My flying Dutch husband and I have lived in Ohio, Virginia, the
Netherlands, Germany and now Istanbul. We still haven’t decided if we
want to settle down somewhere – let alone where. I’m leaning towards
somewhere I can learn to surf even though the hubby thinks that’s a less
than sound way to decide where to live. Although I’ve been a military
policewoman, a commercial lawyer, and a B&B owner, I think with
writing I may have finally figured out what I want to be when I grow up.
That’s assuming I ever grow up, of course. Between playing tennis,
running much slower than I would like, trying to adopt every stray dog
within a 5-mile radius, traveling to exotic new locales, singing off
tune, drinking entirely too many adult beverages, addictively watching
new movies and reading books like they are going out of style, I write
articles for a local expat magazine and various websites, review other
indie authors’ books, write a blog about whatever comes to mind and am
working on my seventh book.

B&NMy review : Love in the Time of Murder by D.E, Haggerty (The Gray-Haired Knitting Detectives#3)
4 STARS
This is a fun light hearted murder mystery. I want to read more of the series. DE says this is the last one, but it was my first one.
I want to go back sometime and read the first two books in the series.
There is a lot of characters in this novel a wide range of them. They make me laugh. I can see why they scare some people.
Delilah has left her husband and moved back were her grandma lives. She does not want everyone to know her business but they all do. Dee works for Jack at his dress shop.
Gray-Haired Knitting Detectives travel in a pack together. One is a matchmaker. A couple of gay lovers, a detective and his pregnant wife.
When Delilah's husband comes to town and gets murdered Delilah is the chief suspect. The only suspect. So the group steps in and plans to make sure the right murder is locked up. They also think that she should date Tommy.
I loved the scene in the Police station when the detective falls apart and starts yelling.
I was given Love in the Time of Murder to read for free and in return I agreed to give a honest review and be part of it's book tour.

Thanks for reading and reviewing my book - especially in the hospital! Hope your shoulder heals quickly and you aren't in too much pain. A plate and screws? Ouch! Take care
When you write a book, do you have all the characters in place and an ending planned, or does it come to you as you write?
Do you post the whole outline of the book on a piece of cardboard paper to start or do you write first this is for a standalone book! Great info about the new book above can't wait to read and review!
New author for me excited to read your books.
