Autorenporträt
Angela M. Sanders worked for more than a decade as a congressional investigator before turning author. Her lack of success finding bathtub reading that was indulgent yet smart led her to write the Joanna Hayworth Vintage Clothing mysteries-sample title, Dior or Die-and The Booster Club capers, which center around a retirement home for petty criminals. Under the pen name Clover Tate, she writes a series of kite shop mysteries, the third of which, Wuthering Kites, launches September 2018. Angela's articles on food, personalities, and perfume have appeared in a variety of magazines, and she's a columnist for the popular fragrance blog, Now Smell This. When Angela isn't at her laptop, she's rummaging in thrift shops, lounging with a vintage detective novel, or pontificating about how to make the perfect martini. www.angelamsanders.com.
