Blake Mara
About The Author
Blake Mara is a pseudonym of Mara Timon, author of Second World War thrillers City of Spies and Resistance. She started writing as a child; mostly short stories, but when an idea caught her imagination, she followed one 'what if' after another until her first (and then second . . .) novel emerged.
Mara is a native New Yorker who moved to the UK about twenty years ago. When Covid hit, she went cliché and got a pandemic puppy – a miniature dachshund with a massive personality. This opened her eyes to the canine-loving community that blossomed around the local dog park, and who became the inspiration for the Dog Park Detectives. But while her dog park pack have tackled some local crimes, they haven’t found a dead body in the park . . . yet.
