Patricia A. Bremmer, born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska, has carried a passion for mysteries and word puzzles since childhood when she devoured every Perry Mason book she could find. She rarely left a word scramble unsolved in the Omaha World Herald paper during her elementary school years. Her fondness for libraries and bookstores never waned. Bremmer traveled across the United States with her thoroughbred racehorses for fifteen years before taking her experiences and settling down to a quiet place in western Nebraska. Bremmer collaborated with a screenplay writer to write her first novel "Tryst With Dolphins". She did so out of pure frustration with so many unbelievable mystery stories in film and print filled with "I would never do that" & "that would never happen" moments, where reality gets lost and clues for the reader never exist. After the success of her first novel Bremmer penned a sequel titled "Dolphins' Echo". Her third book "Death Foreshadowed" cemented the role of her sleuth, Detective Glen Karst. Six books later, Karst has his own fan club where he is loved by the women readers and envied by the men. As a source of insider humor, Bremmer has used the names and likenesses of people she has met during her travels across the U.S. with the horses. She is often asked if a certain character is meant to be a mutual acquaintance to which Bremmer only replies "Maybe!" All of Bremmer's novels contain an "Elusive Clue" word puzzle hidden somewhere in the book. The puzzle is varied in each book but when the letters are unscrambled it always names the murderer. Bremmer is complimented often with her unique writing style. She writes with a quick stride keeping the story alive and the characters hopping. Light mystery readers can breeze through the books in a weekend while the desires of serious mystery purists will be quenched with a plot that challenges the mind. Either way Bremmer's fans are always satisfied with this new approach to the solvable whodunits. Bremmer, the mother of three, has six grandchildren. She and her husband own and operate a dog kennel (a childhood dream). She has shown, trained and raised dogs for over thirty years. Her books are available through Windcall Publishing, online bookstores, national bookstores, and her personal favorites... libraries and independent bookstores.
