A Judge’s Penchant for Porcelain
Do you collect anything? Besides books, I mean 😉 Willa Carson from my Hunt for Justice series does. She collects Herend porcelain figurines painted in the fishnet pattern.

The fantasy is usually motivated by heartbreak or financial or criminal problems they can’t face. When I read missing persons cases […]

Secret Justice and Gasparilla Security
Nearly half a million people crowded into one edge of one city all at the same time? It sounds like a security nightmare, doesn’t it?
