Thanks to Ithaca Journal columnist, Gay Huddle, another great article
about the Caitlyn Jamison mystery books appeared in that Upstate New York
newspaper. Gay wrote:
“Congratulations to Mary Nunn Maki, formerly of Newfield and currently
living in Virginia, on the recent publication of her second book, “Fatal Dose,”
a mystery featuring Caitlyn Jamison.
This book, and Mary’s first book, “An Unexpected
Death,” are set in the Finger Lakes area, as Mary says her deepest roots are
here. She grew up near Taughannock Falls, as her parents and grandparents,
Merritt and Maude Agard, operated Taughannock
Farms Inn.
Mary attended the two-room Willow Creek schoolhouse until
third grade and finished up at Trumansburg Central School. After
graduating from Corning Community College, Mary married Ray Maki, from Newfield, and
settled on VanBuskirk Gulf Road with her family for almost 25 years. She
worked at Cornell University for Carl
Sagan, and then went to the other hill to serve as secretary to
Ithaca College President James Whalen.
“Through this process, I have learned that what I love
about writing is developing the different characters, describing the
setting and then bringing it all to life,” Mary says.
Please visit caitlynjamisonmysteries.blogspot.com
to learn more. Mary’s books are published under the name M.E. Maki.
Joe Scaglione, of Ithaca, took a great
picture of Grove Cemetery in Trumansburg, and Mary received permission from him
to use it as the book cover for Fatal
Dose.”
