Shira Glassman asked Clare O'Beara:

Thanks for adding books to the Jewish mystery list! I have a question -- did you add books that have Jewish authors but entirely Gentile settings/characters?

Clare O'Beara Hi Shira,
Thanks for the question. I enjoyed your list. I have read all the books I added, so I can assure you they all have at least one main Jewish character, such as Mary Russell in the Laurie R King books and Alexandra Cooper in the Linda Fairstein books. A slight exception is Kaddish In Dublin, in which a Jewish journalist has been killed, and the Dublin police work with the Jewish community and others to find the reason.

Kelley asked Clare O'Beara:

I enjoy reading sci-fi and fantasy books that feature female Other characters (aliens, etc.) depicted sympathetically. Could you tell me a little bit about the nonhuman heroine of "Dining Out Around the Solar System" and "Dining Out With the Ice Giants"?
