Penny Wilson

Hi! I am an author of historical biography, events and "mysteries," which I mostly co-write with Greg King. I love the research that goes into our books - I think that the immense amount of research work that goes into every one of our books is a bit of a hallmark. When you pick up and read a King and Wilson book, you may end up with more than you want to know!

I have lived in Plymouth, Massachusetts; Treforest, which is a village in South Wales where my mother's family lived, and in Riverside, California, which is where I live today. I earned my degrees at the University of California, where I majored in History, German and Russian.

I like to travel, and my next trip is going to be across American to visit Civil War battlefields and any other places of interest that cross our path! Like most authors, I love to read, and I enjoy mysteries - particularly Scandinavian noir - true crime - a guilty pleasure! - and anything I can find on World War I, late Imperial Russia and Romanov biography.

I am married to Tom Wilson, who is a geologist. We have three huskies: Hawkeye, Winter and Toby.
