Rhys Bowen
Constable Evans adventures set in the Welsh village of
Llanfair
“Satisfying as a Guinness pint...the perfect book to curl
up with on a rainy day.” ––Booklist
Rhys Bowen was born in England grew up in Bath, England
and went to school and college in England, Austria and
Germany. After completing her degree Rhys went to work with
the BBC in London, finding her niche in the drama
department. Working on so many fine plays inspired her to
write my own. Dandelion Hours was her first published, or
in this case, broadcast, work. It was followed by several
other radio and TV plays before Rhys took up an offer from
Australian broadcasting, and went to work in Sydney. There
she met her future husband, a fellow Englishman. He was on
his way to San Francisco, where they settled in 1966 and
have lived ever since. Once in the states, Rhys started writing children’s
picture books. The first book won several awards and
established her in a new career. Children’s books, young
adult books, adult historical romances and sagas followed
until she decided it was finally time for me to write what
I enjoyed reading most...and that was mysteries. The kind
of mystery that gives the reader a great sense of time and
place as well as a rattling good story. When she’s not writing, Rhys loves traveling, hiking,
tennis, singing and sketching––but not as much as playing
with her three little grandchildren.
