About CP Daly

My reading tastes are an eclectic mix of mystery, crime, historical fiction, romance and the occasional fantasy novel.

I made the leap from writing short stories to completing a mystery/thriller trilogy.

The Kelsey Woods trilogy:
Dead After Midnight
Dead Before Sunrise
Dead Days Ahead

Bloody Water, is my first stand alone thriller and was released in 2024. It is set in Nova Scotia, Canada.
I am busy working on my next thriller, Lapse In Judgment, which is set in Iowa and will be available in September of 2026.

Member of Sisters in Crime.
