Autorenporträt
In 2015 D. F. (Don) Bailey published The Finch Trilogy -- Bone Maker, Stone Eater, Lone Hunter -- three novels narrated from the point-of-view of a crime reporter in contemporary San Francisco. Following the trilogy's success, Second Life (2017) launched a new saga based on the characters introduced in the first three books. The series prequel, Five Knives, came out in 2018. The Finch chronicle continues with Open Chains (2019), Run Time (2020), and White Sphere (2022). His first psychological thriller, Fire Eyes, was a W.H. Smith First Novel Award finalist. His second novel, Healing the Dead, was translated into German as Todliche Ahnungen. The Good Lie (2008) is set in his adopted hometown, Victoria. His fourth novel, Exit from America, appeared in 2013. Following his birth in Montreal, Don's family moved around North America from rural Ontario to New York City to Mississippi and New Jersey. "After years of seeking the ideal place to live," he says, "I finally landed on my feet on Vancouver Island -- where I live next to the Salish Sea in the city of Victoria." For twenty-two years he worked at the University of Victoria where he taught creative writing and journalism and coordinated the Professional Writing Cooperative Education Program -- which he co-founded. From time to time he also freelanced as a business writer and journalist. In the fall of 2010, Don left the university so that, "I could turn my pre-occupation with writing into a full-blown obsession." An Amazon bestselling author, he's also a ManyBooks.com Book-of-The-Month Award winner and a Whistler Independent Book Award finalist. - Click the "Follow" button above to receive news about his next novel. - Sign up for his free new reader book bundle ➜ https: //bit.ly/DFBailey - Visit his website ➜ https: //dfbailey.com - Send an email ➜ don@dfbailey.com
