Autobiography of Eleanor Tatum

"There's nothing permanent except change." (Heraclitus). Therefore, I've switched from contemporary romance and created my first of an historical mystery series, Gray Lace. The Carolina Swamps have remained and the characters are ancestors from my contemporaries, but it's 1908 and kidnapping and extortion are the games played.

The research is fun and the writing is a labor of love. The romantic types appear, Trevor and Catherine, but now I'm focused on a new character, Mrs. K, a senior lady detective. Secret passions are difficult to ignore.
