Susan is an award-winning poet as well as an international and bestselling author. After she signed on with an agent she met through an Atlanta Writers Club Conference, her two psychological suspense novels, The Pocket Wife and The Other Widow, sold at auction to Morrow-Harper Collins, to Faber & Faber in the UK, and Piemme in Italy. The Pocket Wife, published separately in France, Spain, Germany, and Poland, gained international acclaim and spent eight weeks on the Canadian Bestseller list.

Her work has been widely and favorably reviewed in such newspapers as The Toronto Star, The San Francisco Tribune, and The Boston Globe. Radio interviews include Radio Gorgeous in the UK and Literary New England, where she was delighted to share air time with Elizabeth Berg.

Her books have been featured in Big Issue in the North, and Metro in England and her articles have been included in publications both here and abroad, including Cosmopolitan in Italy. Closer to home, she writes monthly articles for the e-Quill.

Originally from Miami, Susan lived in New York and Boston before coming to Atlanta, where she raised three daughters and worked in the field of Adult Education for over 20 years.

Her work was described by Booklist as “gripping character-driven mystery.”
