I listened last night to an oldie, the song “I’m Walkin'” and my feet did just that; they walked, they jumped, they danced, and I thought of the man whose music I can never forget. I thought how meaningful it is to have music and not just letters in...

Kathleen lives with her husband Joe and their dog Othello midst their large family in Springfield, Massachusetts.
"My love affair with plots, murder, mystery, spies and, in general, with crime novels began at an early age. I read and read – probably have read 2,000 crime novels since then.
