Hi there! I'm Diane, and I welcome you to my website. If you don't know me yet, I'm the author of the popular Leonardo da Vinci historical mystery series from Berkley Prime Crime. I'm also writing the new Black Cat Bookshop series for Berkley, debuting in 2011. In addition, I've written several mystery and fantasy short stories published in various anthologies from DAW Books.
