Across her Pittsburgh Murder Mystery Series, comprised of GROUND TRUTH, BROKEN GLASS, and THE LOCKED BOX, this author explores the themes of love and loss, two states she considers to be universal in human experience.
Miles portrays deep and lasting friendships as the healing salve for the personal losses visited on victims of crime, and especially on amateur sleuth Kate Chambers.
Her readers turn the last page of each novel satisfied that Kate, Chief Jablonsky, Dr. Patel, Professor Johnny, and detective Antoine DeVille, have meted out justice and that they continue to thrive through their collaboration and friendship.
