MOST RECENT PROJECTS
Just released her new book Code of Siman: All is Not Lost, which takes the reader on an adventure to recover artwork looted during the Holocaust through codes embedded in paintings by the French Resistance.
BEST-KNOWN PROJECTS
Her recently released book, "A Vetted Asset", is a fast-paced suspense/thriller spanning Ohio, Paris and the wine country of Sonoma County. MacLaine Winters finds the details of her husband’s false identity tucked away inside old record albums after moving to a new town. With the help of her father, who is a retired covert military operative, along with her ready for adventure sister, her pragmatic yet fearless brother, her precocious 4-year-old daughter and her frog named Henry, she discovers her husband's identity is a sham and her idyllic life as his wife is merely a part in his witness protection program as he worked within the worlds largest ring of Expert Consultants within the Russia Mafia. Interwoven into this novel is the thread of rising above conflict as each character strives for credibility, to be valued, and to become a vetted asset.

Similar types of books to compare this to are; If Tomorrow Comes by Sidney Sheldon. The intrigue and fast pace would appeal to a wide range of readers including those who choose to read Danielle Steele and James Patterson.
