Kerry Buchanan is a retired veterinary surgeon and mother of three adult children. She began writing in 2014, and despite having a disability (psoriatic arthritis) that affects her stamina and her ability to write and type for prolonged periods she has been prolific and diverse with her work. Kerry's Northern Irish crime series is published by Joffe Books, and she says that despite the bloodthirsty nature of her novels, she's really a very nice person, honestly. She also writes freelance for publications including Practical Boat Owner Magazine. She wouldn't have been able to produce so many novels, stories and articles if it wasn't for the support of her husband, Fraser. Fraser is a retired professor of biomedical engineering and has sailed since he was a teenager.
