This week on the Mississippi Arts Hour, Kristen Brandt talks with Gulf Coast-based writer Patti Golden. Patti left her twenty-five-year legal career behind to move abroad, and during her extensive travels, she began her new career as a full-time writer. Her mystery novels are influenced by her travel journals as well as her adventures sailing across the Gulf Coast and beyond. She is now the author of five books, including four thrilling mystery novels and a new work of nonfiction that uses her personal experiences to provide insight into the world of sailing through a woman’s eyes.
