Welcome, Lisa. Nice to see you here. My debut thriller, Switch, will be introduced to international publishers by Bantam UK at the London Book Fair in April. Looking forward to it.

Lovely to see a translator join in - I'm very partial to translators without whom I wouldn't be reading anywhere near the range of books that I love :)

Hope you enjoy Crimespace.

Welcome Lisa. I was an Army house husband in Germany and taught a fifth grade class of German children in Wertheim in the 80's. It was a great experience. My son is stationed there now and plans on doing as many years there as they'll let him.
