Author Information

The oldest of three girls, Kathy Manos Penn was the shy bookworm in a boisterous New York City family of Greeks and Italians. She took a book everywhere she went-to family dinners, doctors' offices, and, of course, to bed. A lifelong word nerd and grammar geek, she freely admits she's addicted to playing Words with Friends and to reading. She populates her mysteries with well-read, witty senior women, a sassy cat, and a loyal dog. Book 1 in her Dickens & Christie Mystery series won a Readers' Favorite Gold Medal Award, and Kathy is a two-time Georgia Author of the Year nominee. ""Never in my wildest dreams did I see myself writing cozy mysteries,"" she says. But somehow, after years in banking, that's what happened. Now, happily retired, she lives in Georgia with her husband and the two four-legged office assistants who inspire the personalities of Dickens & Christie. Alex Picard brings a lifetime of work in the theater as an actor and director to her work in front of the mic. With a background in Shakespeare, she excels at connecting listeners to the author's world. A Boston native and lifetime East Coaster, she records audiobooks in her home studio, is a terrible cook, an accidental gardener, enjoys all things Marvel, Star Wars, and Star Trek, and once ran a marathon on purpose.
