Cate Martin loves to mix mysteries and magic. And she does it a lot. Like in all three of her witch mystery novels series: The Witches Three Cozy Mysteries, The Viking Witch Cozy Mysteries and The Weal and Woe Bookshop Witch Mysteries. She also loves to mix mysteries and history. Whether thatтАЩs 1930s St. Paul, Minnesota like in her Dorothy Lundegaard P.I. short fiction series, or whether itтАЩs ninth century Norway like in her Ljota and Kiallakr short fiction series. She even loves her mystery straight up, no chaser, like much of her fiction which has appeared in the quarterly magazine Mystery, Crime and Mayhem. And her alter ego Kate MacLeod has even been known to mix mystery with her science fiction. You can learn more about her work at CateMartin.com and at RatatoskrPressBooks.com.
