Haines, Carolyn

Carolyn Haines is the author of the Sarah Booth Delaney Mysteries, including "Greedy Bones, Bone Appetit", and "Bones of a Feather". She is the recipient of both the Harper Lee Distinguished Writing Award and the Richard Wright Award for Literary Excellence. Before writing fiction, she worked for several years as a journalist, and first visited the Delta, the setting for her mysteries, to do a newspaper story on Parchman State Prison. Born and raised in Mississippi, she now lives in Alabama on a farm with more dogs, cats, and horses than she can possibly keep track of.
