Still just as busy!

Orange County Confidential: Shadows amid all the sunshine

In  November’s issue of Orange Coast, I explore crime in O.C., via a 12-page spread – a compendium – that looks at significant cases, past and present; leading crime-solvers (including cold case investigator Larry Montgomery of the D.A.’s office and O.C. Crime Lab forensic scientist Mary Hong); local crime writers, and more.

What makes for a multi-million $$$$ home? A view doesn’t hurt

Along with checking out the crime beat, I also contributed the cover story for Orange Coast’s November issue: on O.C.’s Grandest Homes. It was a tough assignment, but somebody had to do it — touring six absolutely amazing homes, all in South County (translation: coastal views) — with estimated values ranging from $12 million to $40 million. I’m still drooling!
