Danee Wilson

DANEE WILSON grew up on the prairies in Regina, Saskatchewan. She completed a BA Hons in Spanish at the University of Calgary before moving to Spain to teach English. Inspired by the unidentified remains entombed in the Valle de Cuelgamuros (previously the Valley of the Fallen) and hoping to work in the recovery and identification of victims of the Spanish Civil War, Danee returned to Canada to study archaeology at the University of Saskatchewan, where she received a BA Hons and an MA. During her studies, she travelled to Spain each summer to volunteer in the search for the victims of Franco’s regime. In 2016, Danee began work as Assistant Director of a small archaeology company in the Basque Country, where she spent three field seasons excavating the medieval cemetery at San Miguel de Aralar, and one season excavating the ossuary at Roncesvalles, in Navarre. After more than three years abroad, Danee once again returned to Canada, completing a post-graduate diploma in public relations and communications management from McGill University. She is the author of Murder at San Miguel and Death at Fort York. Danee currently resides in Toronto, Canada, with her husband and toy poodle.
