Stefano A. Giovannoni

Stefano A. Giovannoni is a fourth-generation Italian-American author living in the charming town of Healdsburg, California. When he isn’t conjuring up supernatural mysteries, dark family secrets, and magical adventures, he enjoys preparing homemade Italian dishes, tending to his organic garden, and spending time with his ever-mysterious black cat, Negroni.

Stefano is the creator of the Oliveto Universe, a young adult paranormal mystery series that begins with The Dark Secrets of Oliveto and continues with The Return to Oliveto and Darkness Falls over Oliveto. Blending ancient magic, powerful spells, mythical creatures, and unexpected friendships, his stories transport readers to a seemingly ordinary small town where danger hides in plain sight, nothing is quite what it seems, and some secrets refuse to stay buried.
