Catherine Astolfo is an award-winning, Canadian best-selling author of mystery and psychological suspense. Her short stories and poems have been published in a number of Canadian literary presses. Her story, "What Kelly Did," won the prestigious Arthur Ellis Award for Best Short Crime Story in 2012. She won the Arthur Ellis Award for the second time, again in the Best Short Crime Story category (May, 2018). The winning story, The Outlier, is contained in the Mesdames of Mayhem's short story anthology, Thirteen Claws. Since Catherine's traditional Canadian publisher had to close its doors, her work has been published or republished independently, under Moe Publications, named after her late mother, or through Carrick Publishing. There are four novels in The Emily Taylor Mystery Series, The Bridgeman, Victim, Legacy and Seventh Fire. Her standalone novel, Sweet Karoline, is a psychological suspense. Sweet Karoline hit the top ten of Amazon Canada on its first day of release. The novel has been republished independently. She is the author of a novella series, the Kira Callahan Mysteries. The first two novellas have also been republished independently, together in one novel, titled Twice the Chit. Catherine co-authored a book of short stories with her uncle, called Uncle Tom's Gabbin' And So Am I, Carrick Publishing. She has recently published The Grand Art of Murder, a novel with a dash of humour, a keep-em-guessing plot, and a quirky ghost. Her most recent book is a collection of connected short stories, entitled Auntie Beers, about women (and some men) who are born in Ireland during difficult times; they emigrate to Canada and are faced with the Depression. Yet their wry humour prevails. Catherine's stories are gritty, yet portray gorgeous surroundings. They deal with sensitive social issues, but always include love and hope. They're not thrillers, but rather literary mysteries with loads of character and setting. And justice always prevails.
