I like to write mysteries where readers can expect to have their heroine or hero do well. First of all, they really like it because I'm about the only person who's writing horse race mysteries that really knows about the industry and gets the facts right, but mostly it's because my love for Thoroughbred racing shines through in every page.

Sasscer: I've never had any problem at all. Full Mortality: A Nikki Latrelle Racing Mystery - Sasscer Hill - Google Books Jockey Nikki Latrelle gets the chance of a lifetime - to ride the favorite in a stakes race - only to have. Do you ever get any pushback on writing about these sort of topics?
You write about real-life situations in the horse industry and cover sensitive topics like drugging in the business.
