Phew... just a few days before I fly off for Bouchercon. San Francisco's a beautiful city, one I've been visiting for more than twenty years. And it features in two of my books, <em>Dante's Numbers</em> and <em>Epiphany. </em>That last one was written in 1996 and is now out of print, though Dante (which is <em>The Dante Killings </em>in the US now... sigh) is still very current.

Here are some photos I took while researching it. Great places to visit if you have a spare moment at Bouchercon -- Mission Dolores, the Legion of Honor and, since all these are connected to Hitchock's <em>Vertigo</em>, Scotty's apartment from that movie, which really isn't hard to find.
