On November 1, 2015, I ran the New York City Marathon and released my fourth novel, THE EMERALD BROOCH. It was an amazing day. It took me longer than I planned, but after months of hard work, I didn't want the day to end.
It was announced by the New York Road
Runners that 50,229 starters raced through five boroughs at the New York City
Marathon on November 1. A handful of celebrities and other noteworthy
runners joined their ranks to cross the finish line in Central Park. From fastest
