Cathy Ace

Cathy Ace is the award-winning author of the traditional Cait Morgan Mysteries featuring her Welsh Canadian criminology professor sleuth who travels the world tripping over corpses - now optioned for TV. She also writes the cozier WISE Enquiries Agency Mysteries featuring a quartet of soft-boiled female PIs who run their business out of a Welsh stately home. Both series have been well-reviewed. Her award-winning standalone, THE WRONG BOY, is a gripping novel of psychological suspense, set in Wales, and has also been optioned for TV. Cathy migrated from Wales to Canada aged 40.
