edit data

From an early age, American author Clare T. Walker had two main passions: books and animal science. She pursued the science as a career and became a veterinarian, and has now come full circle as a pioneer in the new sub-genre of the veterinary medical thriller -- exciting stories of action, suspense, and a touch of horror, with a veterinarian in the starring role! She also writes paranormal stories, where the laws of science go sideways!

Walker combines entertainment with edification, mystery with meaning, and a fast pace with deep feeling. These stories will stay with you long after you've closed the book or powered down your e-reader. They may even keep you awake at night...
