The curious phrase written on the backing board of a misplaced portrait-your future is in the past-sounds like a curse to Kate Lambrose. Nevertheless, she highlights the missing family heirloom in her In Sight column, inviting her readers to join in the ornate treasure chase. Kate's future becomes one puzzle after another when a mystery caller claims the portrait of Grandmother Petra belongs on their family tree. While Kate hunts for clues to locate the portrait, she struggles with family challenges, and yet another cry for help to unearth the stench at Glenwood cemetery. But wait! Legal troubles arise when an anonymous person threatens to take Kate to court. As Kate dons her hero cape, she puts to rest her past relationships to embrace romance with one of Yardman's finest. With a cop as backup, and Luanne at her side, Kate becomes a target not once, but twice! About the Authors: Elaine Braman and Margarete Johl Collaborating from opposite coastlines is no obstacle for authors Elaine Braman and Margarete Johl. They share the passion for writing a witty mystery, heat waves, hot flashes, and Palm trees but beyond that, they couldn't be further apart than Florida and California. They met one time several years ago by chance and became fast friends, mixing like paper and pen. Although they have not seen each other since, they continue to write cozy mysteries, and thought provoking sci-fi. Right in Sight, their first cozy mystery, placed as a finalist in the 2012 Royal Palm Literary Awards. Born in Pennsylvania to parents whose native language was German, Margarete started writing early in life perfecting English grammar. Some of the first stories she wrote were notes excusing her absence from gym class. Those believable tales spiraled her imagination into short stories she tapped out on an old Smith Corona typewriter. Having lived in Pennsylvania and Montana, she has chosen California as her home and resides near Palm Springs where anything under 80 degrees is sweater weather. She is an avid reader, occasional poet, and if there was a degree to be had for stage fright, she'd have a Master, but give her a keyboard or stubby pencil, and she'll create a world. Originally from Massachusetts, Elaine grew up in a small town in a huge house that bordered a cow farm. Growing up in a small town is the original social media-every family knew every family's story. Her background in technical writing provides skills to organize a logical plot. In addition to winning place in the 10th annual Writers Digest short short story competition she has written instructional articles for career professionals, contributed proofing and editing for such publications as The Florida Writer, RPLA, Connections Magazine and the johnyraygun Comic Book by Rich Woodall. Elaine's philosophy is, teach what you know to learn what you don't know. Both Margarete and Elaine juggle full time careers, family, and pets while they continue to perfect their writing craft.
