Book Club Welcomes Budding Author
Photo provided

A Lafayette book club welcomed budding author Karen Lynch, who wrote "Good Cop, Bad Daughter," to a recent luncheon. The book is a memoir of Lynch's childhood growing up with a bipolar mother in San Francisco in the '60s and '70s. "In 1980 she joined the San Francisco Police Academy, as times were tough and a recent Berkeley grad couldn't find a job," said book club member Francie Low. "She was one of the first female cops on the force. Her Beatnik mother did not like the idea of her daughter working for the 'enemy.' The book is a page-turner." Lynch has been approached by Hollywood and she was a recent guest on NPR's Friday Forum (http://www.kqed.org/a/forum/R201405221000).
