Notă biografică
"Kit DeCanti is a wife, mother, grandmother and a former pre-school teacher. She has been writing ever since 3rd grade when an esay she wrote about the Navajo Indians was published in the local newspaper. In the 1950s, she and her siblings spent hot California summers inventing mysteries to solve- which inspired Kit's love of mysteries. DeCanti's first mystery novel was published in 2009, and practically before it was in print she had two sequels swimming in her head. Although her suspenseful mysteries could stand on their own- Kit typically wraps an intriguing romance around them. As if a mystery and romance weren't enough- Kit DeCanti also takes you on a vivid word tour of the fascinating Lake County, California where she and her husband has lived since 1996. Besides Secret On Cobb Mountain and Return To Cobb Mountain, other books DeCanti has out are The Rock House which is a children's book based on the house Kit's father was born it and was illustrated by Dan Spears; Secrets Of A Lazy Cook- or How I Survived Marriage to An Italian When I Hate The Kitchen, a cook book filled with great recipes and funny family stories. DeCanti also wrote the commentary for SpearsSpheres & SpaceSeekers- Absolutely Abstract, an art book by Dan Spears. Out soon is DeCanti's Crossroads Inn Time trilogy, also set in Lake County. Kit likes to refer to herself as a 'late bloomer', because although she has written since she was eight years old, she was almost fifty before becoming prolific. Kit credits Lake County California for her recent creativity, "I started painting and writing almost before I unpacked after moving to Lake County. Just one drive around Clear Lake tells you why the county is full of artists, authors, musicians and poets.- I can't imagine not being creative surrounded by such beauty."
