Three Dirty Women and the Bitter Brew

About Specification

One day while Julie Wray Herman and two of her neighbors were

sprucing up a flower bed, they got to talking about life in general, and

people who had upset them in particular. That, combined with a chance comment

about an all female landscaping company, sparked the idea for Three Dirty

Women. While Julie hasn't actually buried anyone in her garden, she has

always found gardening to be a good way to work off frustration, anxiety, and

chocolate chip cookies.

Julie was raised in Louisville by a Southern mother and a book-loving father.

She currently lives outside Houston, Texas with her husband, two children,

and — at last count — one dog, three cats, a horse, a turtle and one fish.

When Julie has time, she plans to take the "All Strays Apply Here" sign down

from her front porch.

The proud owner of an overactive imagination, she puts it to good use in her

premier mystery, Three Dirty Women and the Garden of Death. This series

features an all-female landscaping company, Three Dirty Women, Inc. The women

turn up more than they bargained for when they unearth the body of a

philandering husband in a flower border.

Julie is a founding member and past-president of the Gulf Coast Chapter of

Sisters in Crime, and a member of MWA.
