ⓘ About Simone St. James

For twenty years, author Simone St. James worked in the television business before making the switch to writing fiction full time. She lives outside of Toronto, Canada with a rescue cat that she spoils and her husband. She loves old gothic novels from the seventies, sushi, coffee, rainy days, and Sherlock. While in high school, she wrote her first ghost story, which was about a haunted library. It took her years of writing, not to mention rejections before her first book, “The Haunting of Maddy Clare” sold in the year 2012. Once it was published, it won an Arthur Ellis from Canada’s Crime Writers and two RITA Awards. “The Haunting of Maddy Clare” is the first stand alone novel which was released in the year 2012.
