Karin Salvalaggio

Karin Salvalaggio was born in West Virginia in the 1960s. Her father was career military and her mother was a homemaker. Karin has fond memories of her nomadic childhood - the hours spent on the road, the anticipation of a new life, the unpacking of the old one. She's lived in places as climatically diverse as Alaska and Florida and as culturally distinct as California and Iran. Karin attended the University of California Santa Cruz, graduating in 1989, but has lived in London, England since 1994. She has an MA in Creative Writing from Birkbeck, University of London. Her short story Walleye Junction was published in the Mechanics Institute Review 8 in 2011. Her first three novels in the Macy Greeley Mystery Series - Bone Dust White, Burnt River and Walleye Junction are available online and in book stores. The fourth novel in the series, Silent Rain, will be published in May 2017.
