Resolute Death Cover, front and back, against deep red background

“A little like FARGO meets THE NAME OUT OF THE ROSE, and yet entirely unlike both of those. It’s a murder mystery, but it’s also about the extremely petty politics that thrive in academia. It’s a whole vibe.”


~ E.H. Lupton (author the WISCONSIN GOTHIC series)

After a full life in academe, I’ve escaped into the world of storytelling!

Right now I’m deep into the Osley College Mysteries, a series with a utopian take on academia. Utopian, but not perfect.

There are murders and the solving of same. People get hurt, they have problems, they struggle. They also laugh, love, and live. They are, in short, human. My stories are character-driven. A core ensemble comes together: an alliance of expertise, personalities, genders, sexualities, and ethnicities; a found family in a way.
