Jackie Elliott

Jackie is originally from the UK, but she settled on Vancouver Island, Canada in 2004. Sheā€™s married to Bob, a commercial fisherman and accomplished storyteller ā€“ like most fishermen! Jackie was intrigued by the pioneer spirit of small island communities, and the fight to hang on to traditional ways of living. In her experience, small towns ā€˜with a heartā€™ have claws and teeth as well and that makes the perfect back drop for a good murder!
