New York TIMES Bestselling author see titles below.
In a perfect world Gerritsen would sit down at her big desk with
pen and paper each day at 9:30 a.m. and write four pages by noon. Then she'd
spend the rest of the day tending to her lively and opinionated blog (

check out the creepy biological facts she collects from her farflung reading),
her roses and, especially, her fiddle playing.
"I love Celtic music," enthuses Gerritsen who has played violin since she was a
child.
She writes in November 2007:
Wolfgang,
I write crime novels because when I was a young child, my mother took me to many,
many horror films. I came to love the experience of being frightened by a story,
either in the movie house or on the page. I was also a big reader of mystery
novels when I was a child, and I like the genre very much. I think that's why I
write it -- because it's also what I enjoy reading.
