A founding member of the Coastal Cruisers chapter of Sisters in Crime, she’s an Emerita Lecturer in Writing at the University of California, Santa Cruz. Robin lived in the rural foothill town of Sonora, California, in the nape of the Sierra Nevada, where she kept her horse and worked as a crime reporter for the local newspaper, an editor for the United States Forest Service, and an English teacher. In 2002, she returned to her home near the beach in Santa Cruz, California, where she lives with her husband and their Havanese, Buster. She is a passionate advocate for wild horses.\nAbout Mortal Zin:\nA crusading attorney’s death. Sabotage at a family winery…As threats mount and the winery teeters on the brink of ruin, Noli and Luz must navigate a treacherous landscape of greed, revenge, and long-buried secrets. Can two fearless women from different worlds unravel the truth before it’s too late?\nAbout Diane Schaffer:\nDiane Schaffer, a Stanford PhD, is a retired professor and longtime resident of Santa Cruz County. Mortal Zin, her first mystery novel, is rooted in her summer work in a Santa Cruz zinfandel winery, where she became fascinated with the unique history of zinfandel, California’s mystery grape. When she’s not writing, she’s hiking, river kayaking, or reading a good mystery novel. She now lives in Ashland, Oregon, with her husband.\nAbout Whoa, Nelly! A Love Story (*With Footnotes): \nOne woman’s prairie pilgrimage becomes a reckoning with American myths and her own buried truths. Whoa, Nelly! by Julia Park Tracey is history, heart, and heat.\nAbout Julia Park Tracey:\nJulia Park Tracey is an award-winning journalist and author of nine books, with an emphasis on women’s history and her female ancestors’ stories. Inspired by a mysterious train receipt in her family’s scrapbook, she researched her Orphan Train roots and continues to write novels about her found relatives. A lifelong fan of the Little House books, Tracey put her train-traveling time when crossing the American prairie to good use when she toured for her previous novels.\n \n
