Sidewalk Spots

Harkening back to the nostalgic era of San Francisco's heyday, with the city as the backdrop, author Kathy Dorsey weaves an intricate tale of mystery hidden in plain sight and puzzles appearing around each corner. The sidewalks of the Golden City pulse with the secrets buried beneath their surface and one wrong step could reveal them forever. Sidewalk Spots is a delightfully, quirky, coming-of-age adventure with a mysterious twist that will enrapture and entrance you until the very end.




"Good old-fashioned storytelling meant for a rainy afternoon by the fire with an ending that will make you want to read it again looking for the detail you might have overlooked."

-Thomas Del Beccaro, Historian and Author of The Divided Era.




I like Marcus. He's my hero.

-Peter Robertson, former Mayor, City of Brampton and University of Toronto Professor




A book that you have to read to the end. Loved it! Dorsey had me hooked at the first "spot" and kept me curious until the final puzzle was revealed. -Helene Letzler, Wellington, Ontario




Kathy takes you there! Great read.

-Sally van Kaathoven, Aptos, California




Take the mundane and weave a story--that is what Kathy Dorsey does best. Having been raised in San Francisco, so many of the places are long gone (like the Emporium). This story brought back childhood and adolescent memories. Didn't see the end coming at all, well done!
