Back to topWhy Write Mystery Fiction? September Mystery Panel with Alison Gaylin, Carol Goodman, and Erica Obey
Erica Obey is the author, most recently, of the historical mystery The Horseman’s Word, as well as the IPPY and Foremost Indie award-winning The Curse of the Braddock Brides, which Publisher’s Weekly described as “a smoothly unfolding, satisfyingly twisty tale.” She has also published two other novels, Back to the Garden and The Lazarus Vector, a paranormal mystery that Publisher’s Weekly called “fascinating” in a starred review, as well as scholarly work on 19th-century female folklorists. She holds a Ph.D. in Comparative Literature and taught courses on Arthurian romance, fantasy and mystery fiction at the college level, before she decided that she’d rather be writing the stories herself. There are two places you can find Erica when she isn’t writing: covered in mud in her far-too-ambitious garden or hiking the Catskills in search of ghosties and ghoulies and other things that go bump in the night.
