It's about satsang - good company, good works and good living - balance and focus coupled with clear intentions and the wonder of synchronicity."

"We partner with organizations and corporations that mentor youth and teach them about the power they each have to help themselves and others." Ms. Yapalater is an avid horsewoman who practices natural horsemanship. She lives in New York City and Bridgehampton.
Reviews:
“In her impressive debut, Karin Yapalater delivers a skillful mix of murder,
sex, and psychosis. Two detectives investigating a pair of ghastly murders
in Central Park discover they are personally connected to the victims, a
prominent New York psychiatrist and the lesbian cop's ex-lover. Meanwhile,
an ambitious assistant D.A. would love to settle an old score by making the
link. Yapalater gives that well-worn cop-under-suspicion plot a fresh set of
prints, thanks to insightful prose about psychiatric dysfunction as well
as whip-smart police dialogue. An Hour to Kill is a provocative couch trip
in which those rascals Freud and Jung are as suspect as the perps.”
- Entertainment Weekly “If you love thrillers, spend a couple of hours with AN HOUR TO KILL.
This is a psychological thriller that really thrills. It's savvy, it's sexy,
and best of all, true to life.”
