Person
I write unputdownable suspense novels set against the lush backdrops of Italy, Malta and beyond. If you like heart-stopping plot twists, complex characters and delicious suspense, you are in the right place!
As an only child, I grew up painfully shy and was a voracious reader. Both my parents were avid readers. My fondest memory is of them sitting in their easy chairs each engrossed in their book. When we went to the library, my biggest conundrum was how I would limit myself to just four books (that's all kids were allowed to take out back then).
I graduated from high school not having a clue what I wanted to do and was quickly recruited into public relations and later, sales?a shy person! Later, I was invited to teach communication skills at the British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) where I spent 13 years writing training programs and articles on marketing for entrepreneurs. But what I really wanted to do was write the kind of novels that I loved to read: mysteries and suspense.
I started writing my first novel in 2011 and DEADLY SWITCH: A Stone Suspense came out in 2013 (revised in 2015). The second book in the series, SCARE AWAY THE DARK, came out in 2018 and won the Chanticleer CLUE award the same year. It has been #1, #2 and #6 in Amazon's categories of psychological thrillers, international mystery and crime, and suspense thrillers, respectively.
As I'm write book number three, I still find myself caught up in the excitement along with my loyal fans and readers. Please consider signing up for my monthly newsletter for the latest news as well as my VIP Readers Club!
When I'm not writing, I'm reading. When I'm not doing either of those things?which is rare?I enjoy spending time with my supportive and patient husband (I don't know how he does it!), gardening, ambling the seawalk near our home, and snuggling with our laid-back Ragdoll cat, Bello and adopted senior cat, Missy. I'm originally from England and now live on the west coast of British Columbia, Canada. For more info or to join my VIP Readers Club please go to: https://www.karendodd.com
