Melissa Saulnier

Melissa Saulnier is an independent researcher and author based in Alaska, where the vast and untamed landscape mirrors the scope of her intellectual curiosity.

Melissa Saulnier writes mystery and thriller fiction set against the rugged, breathtaking landscapes of Alaska. Her Stone & Steele series follows Detective Emma Stone and FBI Agent Jeremiah Steele as they untangle crimes that run as deep as the wilderness surrounding them.

Since 2016, Melissa has also immersed herself in the study of ancient texts, cross-cultural mythology, and the speculative theories that sit at the edge of history and theology. Her research is grounded in serious inquiry, weaving together comparative analysis across civilizations separated by thousands of miles and thousands of years.
