A Dark September Night is the first book in her new Justice Bay series, which is set in a small coastal town in Northern California. Patty has taught writing at various writers’ conferences across the U.S. and Canada. She is the former president of Sisters in Crime/Los Angeles and a current board member of the Southern California chapter of Mystery Writers of America.
Patty earned a BA from the University of Washington in Seattle and an MBA from Pepperdine University in Malibu, California.

Despite the distractions, work continues on the second Justice Bay book.
