About Millie Mack
Millie Mack’s Not So Mysterious Background
I grew up in a family that loved mysteries. We enjoyed mystery stories, books, television shows, and movies. And as with all mystery lovers, our goal was to figure out whodunit before the author revealed the solution. Nancy Drew, Sherlock Holmes, and Agatha Christie ranked among my top reading picks, and for relaxation, I enjoyed putting together jigsaw puzzles.
I keep a copy of Sherlock Holmes close at hand, but I’ve added Stout, Collins, Rinehart, Sayers, Truman, Barrett, Allingham, Grafton, Fluke, Evanovich, and many more! I still prefer books with a puzzle to solve rather than ones that meander through a story without always providing a sense of closure.
Is it any wonder that I always wanted to write a mystery? For years, I kept a journal where I captured thoughts, developed characters, and started ideas for murder plots. Gratefully, no one found these journals with my murder plots and jumped to the wrong conclusion about what I was planning.
I completed my goal when I finished my first mystery book, Take a Dive for Murder, and continued to add books to my series featuring amateur sleuths Carrie and Charles Faraday. Now, I’m working on additional mystery stories beyond this first series. Please keep checking the website for the latest updates on my writing.
