Cathy Perkins

An award-winning author, Cathy Perkins's stories draw on her years in the financial industry, where she observed the hide-in-plain-sight skills employed by her villains. She writes financial-based mysteries but has fun exploring the relationships in her characters' lives. A contributing editor for International Thriller Writers' The Big Thrill, she has handled the blog and social media for the ITW Debut Authors, and coordinated the prestigious Daphne du Maurier Award for Excellence in Mystery/Suspense. When not writing, she does battle with the beavers over the pond height or sets off on another travel adventure. Born and raised in South Carolina, she now lives in Washington with her husband, children, several dogs, and the resident deer herd.
