Her plans for this year will take her to Africa and to Mexico. Her mystery novels include four Dotsy Lamb Travel Mysteries, the last of which will be out this month, Scorpion House, and The Man on the Istanbul Train. Publisher’s Weekly calls Death of a Second Wife, “a cozy that readers will hate to see end,” Kirkus says “a mystery with an intriguing group of suspects,” and Library Journal calls it, “an unforgettable wedding party cum murder plot.”
