Welcome to my books page!
I'm the author of three nonfiction books and a new mystery series.
The nonfiction books run the gamut of mental health, family, and
feline issues and are available in both hardcover and paperback
edition. These are Mad House: Growing Up in the Shadow of Mentally
Ill Siblings (Penguin), Fatherless Women: How We Change After
We Lose Our Dads (Wiley), The Feline Mystique: On the
Mysterious Connection Between Women and Cats (St. Martin's).
