Ellen Byerrum is a novelist, a playwright, a former Washington D.C. journalist, and a graduate of private investigator school in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
The Woman in the Dollhouse (originally published as The Dollhouse in the Crawlspace) is her first suspense thriller. It introduces us to a young woman, Tennyson Claxton, whose mind seems to hold the mingled memories of two very different women. Her past is full of questions, her present is filled with deception and danger, and her future is a blank page—unless she can discover who she really is. Byerrum anticipates exploring Tennyson’s continuing odyssey in a future novel.
She also writes the popular Crime of Fashion Mysteries, which star a savvy, stylish female sleuth named Lacey Smithsonian. Lacey is a reluctant (but well-dressed) fashion reporter in Washington D.C., “The City Fashion Forgot.” Two of her Crime of Fashion novels, Killer Hair and Hostile Makeover, were filmed for the Lifetime Movie Network. The tenth in the series is entitled Lethal Black Dress.
In addition, Byerrum has also penned a middle-grade mystery, The Children Didn’t See Anything, the first in a projected series starring the precocious twelve-year-old Bresette twins.
