Rhys Bowen

Rhys Bowen is the New York Times bestselling author of two historical mystery series, as well as the #1 Kindle bestseller In Farleigh Field and numerous other international bestsellers. Rhys was born in Bath, England, and educated at London University. Her books have been nominated for every major mystery award and she has won twenty of them to date. They have been translated into twenty-two languages, including Chinese and Arabic.

As a child, Rhys spent time with relatives in Wales. Those childhood experiences colored her first mystery series about Constable Evans in the mountains of Snowdonia. That series includes the Edgar nominee Evan’s Gate. She has lived in England, Germany and Australia, but has called California her home for many years. She escapes to a condo in Arizona during the cold California winters.
