Об авторе

Barbara Fradkin is a child psychologist with a fascination for how we turn bad. Her compelling short stories haunt numerous magazines and anthologies, but she is best known for her gritty, psychological detective series featuring Ottawa Police Inspector Michael Green. Barbara won Arthur Ellis Best Novel Awards for both <i>Fifth Son</i> (2005) and <i>Honour Among Men</i> (2007). <i>The Fall Guy</i> (2011) was her first book in the Rapid Reads series featuring handyman Cedric O'Toole. Barbara's work as a school psychologist helping adolescents and younger children, many of whom struggled with reading, has also made her a strong advocate of programs that help to develop reading as a life-long passion.
