Author’s Note

I am fascinated by how ordinary people react when life takes an unexpected turn. This idea inspired the creation of the Jack Dunn and Martha Healey books — two relatable characters who depend on their instincts, sense of humor, and each other during challenging times. Jack's inquisitive nature often lands him in trouble, while Marty's more level-headed approach keeps Jack from drifting too far into chaos. It's not always an easy task, but I think they make a good team.

I hope Jack and Marty's journey resonates with you, making you laugh, reflect, and appreciate the power of companionship. Thank you for being a part of this adventure! Writing their stories lets me explore small moments of courage, the messiness of relationships, and the quiet resilience that hides in us all. At heart, these mysteries aren’t just about solving crimes — they’re about discovering what truly matters when the world tilts off balance.
