Born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, I grew up travelling the globe extensively as ‘military police issue'. Often being entertained with crime stories by my father's circle of friends and inspired by their delightful, twisted tales, I quickly became a fan of mystery thrillers. A lifetime later, staring at the greatest mystery of all, suddenly I was sixty-seven and married forty-five of them with three children and eight grandchildren. So, now for amusement, along with family and writing more of those offbeat whodunits, I'm a musician/songwriter and - between chapter, song and verse - walk about forty miles a week to keep the mystery alive...
