Author Biography

Thallasophile - lover of the ocean. That's me. I have a strong affinity for that entity and express those feelings through my writing--my books. They may span many genres but are all connected to the place I call home. Genres published: historical fiction, literary, murder, essays--they all are set on Topsail Island where I grew up. It is my way of perserving this wonderful place and the people with whom I share my life. The first book in the Murder by the Sea series is WATERLOGGED. Don Belkin is a former Marine, now a detective with the Surf City Police Dept. He's a conflicted man, to say the least, as he struggles to accept his past and find solace in the small beach town. Bitterness runs deep between the locals who have populated the area for generations and the "new" folks who think they've found paradise. Oh, Topsail Island may be the perfect tourist attraction, but in the summer it's just plain MURDER. (there are 5 more books in the series)

When JFK was assassinated on November 22, 1963 it seemed like the end of the world, Imagine your wedding day being the day after and yet not a year earlier, your father dying. For Mim, the world must have been topsy turvy. The 1960s was a topsy turvy decade and it took us several more decades to come out of the tailspin.

Book Excerpt

Topsail Island Tango

It couldn’t have been a more dreary day for their wedding. And though Mim had suggested they postpone the marriage for at least a week, Anthony would not hear of it.

It wasn’t just that Topsail Island was mourning, but the whole nation was mourning after the announcement that President John F. Kennedy had been assassinated the day before.

Schools were closed, businesses on the island were closed and the pall of disbelief and sorrow hung everywhere. But Anthony was unaffected and convinced mother and daughter to go ahead with the ceremony.

Mim thought of the young president and, though she knew mother had not voted for him, she felt a great foreboding. As if the world had been shaken like a chess board and all the pieces were in a jumble.
