Kissman, Kris

Kris grew up in the tiny fishing village of Siglufjorour on Icelands north fjords where her Mamma ran a pool hall, raised eight daughters and one very spoiled son. Daily visitors at her family home told fortunes and ghost stories for entertainment. The family was forced to flee to the south coast of the island after the herring was depleted and no one could afford to play pool or gather in the family kitchen to tell ghost stories and tell fortunes. Kris and some of her sisters ventured further south, to America, where Kris began her career as a motel maid, then journeyed up the success ladder
