DEADLINES ARE MURDER (79,000 words) is her first book in the Sam (Samantha) Monroe mystery series. The second in the series, WEDDINGS ARE MURDER, will be released in FALL 2016 and the third, TRIALS ARE MURDER, is anticipated in early 2018. Sam Monroe is the protagonist and her unique extended family members and friends are featured in each story. Anne currently resides with her husband in a nice, quiet suburb of Boston, Massachusetts.
Writing since the age of ten, her first short story was inspired by her love of history, particularly the American Revolution, her love of a good story and an active imagination. Her love of history led her to a BA and an MA in History. Her unpublished MA Thesis on Asher Benjamin, architect and builder, is held in several libraries. Her active imagination and the love of a good story has inspired her to write novels. She is continuing to work on stories set in the nineteenth century, using her family history as inspiration.view less
