Susan Davis Sandberg has been a professional writer and dog lover for decades. She has won awards for magazine articles in addition to writing a popular column for nearly a decade that highlighted her dog's antics. Serving time as a mother of six, a teacher and a health plan booklet writer, Susan worked diligently on numerous suspense novels when she could find time. Even in retirement she continues to write, with her dogs by her side, from the crack of dawn well into the evening-the old-fashioned way, with pen and paper.
