Rebecca Cantrell's Biography

A few years ago I quit my job, sold my house, and moved to Hawaii to write a novel because, at seven, I decided that I would be a writer.

I now have a two book contract from Tor for a mystery series set in Berlin in the 1930s. A Trace of Smoke is due out in the summer of 2009, and A Night of Long Knives is due out in the summer of 2010. A Trace of Smoke was under consideration by Showtime and HBO as a television series. My screenplay A Taste For Blood was a finalist at the Shriekfest 2007: The Los Angeles Horror/Sci-fi Film Festival.
