Alice Fitzpatrick has contributed short stories to literary magazines and crime anthologies and has recently retired from teaching in order to devote herself to writing full-time.  She is a fearless champion of singing, cats, all things Welsh, and the Oxford comma.  Her summers spent with her Welsh family in Pembrokeshire inspired the creation of the Meredith Island Mysteries.  She was a third of the way through the first draft of Secrets when she realized that this story of lost family history and the mythologizing of people who are no longer with us was inspired by her own family.  The second book in the series, A Dark Death, will be released on June 1st, 2025, with the Meredith Island Christmas mystery, A Killing Cold, scheduled for release on June 1st of the following year.  She is currently working on the fifth book in the series while looking for a publisher for a standalone suspense novel set in Massachusetts and inspired by a horrific accident that killed eight teenagers in her hometown in Ontario, Canada fifty years ago.  The traditional mystery appeals to her keen interest in psychology as she is intrigued by what makes seemingly ordinary people commit murder.  Alice lives in Toronto but dreams of a cottage on the Welsh coast.
