About Me:
A lot of my life is spent helping people who are going through difficult
situations.
That’s my job, and I love what I do. I would like to meet a man who also loves
his
work. I’m the cautious type, so I don’t want to rush into a relationship. But
if we are
compatible, I am willing to work at building something good and lasting. Family
and
friends are important to me, and I hope they are to you as well. If you’re
interested,
let’s meet and talk and see where it goes. If we discover we can laugh
together, that’s
a good start.
Interests:
Dog training (recently acquired Great Dane mix), movies (particularly classics
and film
noir), jazz and other music, reading, conversation (grew up in a household with
parents
who talked about politics, social issues, and everything else), robotics
(brother is a
scientist), travel (would love to do more)

Frankie Bailey introduced readers to an exciting new protagonist in THE RED
QUEEN
DIES, the first book in the Detective Hannah McCabe mystery series. Now
in WHAT
THE FLY SAW, Hannah and her partner Mike Baxter are back with an even more
puzzling
case.
Albany, New York, January 2020
The morning after a blizzard that shut down the city, funeral director Kevin
Novak
is found dead in the basement of his funeral home. The arrow sticking out of
his chest
came from his own hunting bow.
A loving husband and father and an active member of a local megachurch, Novak
has no
known enemies. His family and friends say he was depressed because his best
friend died
suddenly of a heart attack and Novak blamed himself. But what does his guilt
have to do
with his death? Maybe nothing, maybe a lot. The minister of the megachurch and
the
psychiatrist who provides counseling to church members—do either of them know
more than
they are saying?
Detective Hannah McCabe and her partner, Mike Baxter, sort through lies and
evasions to
solve the riddle of Novak’s death, while unanswered questions from another
high-profile
case, and McCabe’s own suspicions make for a dynamite crime novel.

This is a very interesting story line, and I can't say that I've ever seen anything close to it. It has me intrigued enough to want to read the book, even though I missed the first book in the series. Crime novels rate right up there in my book, along with mysteries, and I'm looking forward to finding out how the story plays out!! Congratulations on your latest book, and I'm sure that it's going to do well.
