About the Author

Since early childhood, Olivia Yates has had a love affair with books (mysteries!) and writing. With a doctorate in education, she's been an educator and nonprofit executive, a professional journalist, an editor and a nonfiction author, including several dozen published articles for national publications. Olivia says a highlight was the pleasure of interviewing 'Queen of Crime' P.D. James for an article. The experience of a stimulating, intimate conversation with a literary giant who used the mystery genre to bring a form of order to a chaotic universe fired her enthusiasm for one day writing mystery fiction.After raising a family and traveling extensively, Olivia now lives in scenic Idaho, surrounded by the beautiful mountains and lakes of America's northwest. Her first fiction writing adventure takes her back east to fictional Dingle Point Cove on the Chesapeake Bay, a place with deep family roots, in a lighthearted new series...a succession of highly entertaining murder mysteries with a most unconventional cast!
