Blair Lindsay

SUSPENSE. STORYTELLING. SCIENCE. Author Blair Lindsay's novels are laced with a grit and intensity matching that of his career as a Firefighter / Paramedic. His forthcoming novel, The Beast in the Bone, focuses on issues striking at the heart of emergency service professions - PTSD, addiction, under-resourcing - as well as global issues filling today's headlines - human trafficking, political corruption and the rise of nationalism. Blair Lindsay was born in Montreal Canada, grew up in a house filled with books and developed a voracious appetite for reading. He is a Paramedic / Firefighter who worked for the City of Airdrie in Alberta, Canada for twenty years and since 1998 has taught in the Paramedicine and Respiratory Therapy programs at the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT) in Calgary.
