When she dreamed of retiring from corporate America, she envisioned indulging in her favorite pastimes—reading, traveling, and writing columns for her local paper. Taking her bucket list trip to England was a top priority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA second career as an author was never part of the plan—until someone uttered the fateful words, “You should write a cozy mystery.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwelve books later, readers can’t get enough of the Dickens \u0026amp; Christie mystery series. Kathy adheres to the adage to write what you know and populates her mysteries with well-read, witty senior women, a loyal dog, and a sassy cat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHer two four-legged office assistants inspire the personalities of Dickens \u0026amp; Christie. Why is Dickens a fiend for belly rubs? Because Kathy’s real-life dog is. The same goes for Christie’s finicky eating habits and penchant for lolling on top of the desk or in the file drawer. She gets it from the calico cat who rules the roost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bourbon \u0026 Bacon","offers":[{"title":"#1  Bells, Tails \u0026 Murder (2020)","offer_id":48292901879908,"sku":"Book-1","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#2 .
