Author: Patrice McDonough

Patrice Mc Donough taught history for over thirty years. She was lucky to grow up in a reading household—her mother and father always had current books by their reading chairs, and others lined up. They were a history‑loving family, too, which kindled her later professional direction. She read her way through her older brother’s hand‑me‑down copies of the Hardy Boys and all of Agatha Christie, so, as a mystery‑loving history teacher, it was natural that she would turn to the historical mystery genre.
