Cate's debut novel, The Stolen Papyrus, was published July 2019, by Limitless Publishing. Before she started writing, she graduated from an Ohio college with a B.A. in German, worked for airlines such as Lufthansa, Austrian Airlines, and Swiss Air, and traveled the world; including Africa, the Middle East, the Far East, Australia, North America, and over a dozen countries in Europe. Now, as a stay-at-home mom, she holds a cup of tea (black with milk) in one hand and a cookie in the other, and enjoys a life of adventure, mystery, and suspense dodging flying soccer balls and toy airplanes.
