(Notify me via e-mail when Rhys Bowen releases a new book.)

Rhys Bowen was born in England grew up in Bath, England and went to school and college in England, Austria and Germany. After completing her degree Rhys went to work with the BBC in London, finding her niche in the drama department. Working on so many fine plays inspired her to write my own. Dandelion Hours was her first published, or in this case, broadcast, work. It was followed by several other radio and TV plays before Rhys took up an offer from Australian broadcasting, and went to work in Sydney. There she met her future husband, a fellow Englishman. He was on his way to San Francisco, where they settled in 1966 and have lived ever since.

Once in the states, Rhys started writing children's picture books. The first book won several awards and established her in a new career. Children's books, young adult books, adult historical romances and sagas followed until she decided it was finally time for me to write what I enjoyed reading most...and that was mysteries. The kind of mystery that gives the reader a great sense of time and place as well as a rattling good story.

When she's not writing, Rhys loves traveling, hiking, tennis, singing and sketching----but not as much as playing with her three little grandchildren.
