About the author

ERIC WILSON identified a need for stories to excite kids about reading as a young teacher in British Columbia. When the search proved difficult, he began writing books himself, publishing Murder on the Canadian in 1976. Four decades later, there are 22 books in the Eric Wilson Mystery Series, which has been translated into ten languages around the world. He has received many honours including the Queen’s Golden Jubilee medal for inspiring a love of reading and our nation. He lives in Victoria with his wife, Flo.
