À propos de l'auteur

Children’s author S.D. Livingston found her niche after publishing in several other genres. Her first novel, a historical romance, was published by Avalon Books in 2008. She soon followed that up with two self-published books, including the political thriller Kings of Providence. But her literary heart really belongs to the stories that enchanted her as a kid, and there’s nothing she enjoys quite like working out the twists and turns of a spine-chilling mystery for young readers. She’s a member of The Writers’ Union of Canada.
