Sharon Burch Toner

Sharon Burch Toner is the author of the Maggie McGill Mysteries, a series of lighthearted mystery adventures featuring a mother/daughter team, Maggie and Allie McGill. The two strong, independent, and resourceful women romp through their mysterious and frightening adventures with grace and an enduring joie de vivre that serves them and the reader well.

She has cherished memories of long summer afternoons on a farmhouse porch as her Irish grandmother wove fascinating tales of the long ago world of her own childhood, giving Sharon an appreciation for a story well told. Her love affair with books began at age six when she discovered the public library in her small town. From that young age, she proceeded to devour any printed material that crossed her path.

After a life as mother, psychotherapist and spiritual explorer, writing is her retirement occupation. She says that for her writing is as necessary as food and shelter. “Writing is what I do and I love it.”

Sharon Burch Toner writes a book a year. The just completed seventh book of the series, Maggie in White, is now available in both print and Kindle editions. Work on the next Maggie book, due out late 2015, will begin in January.

She lives with her two feline roommates in southern California.
