T. N. Daigle

T. N. Daigle writes historical mysteries set in Florida’s wild frontier. Her debut novel, Cypress Run, follows a disgraced Chicago detective exiled to a swamp town where the alligators, politics, and secrets are all equally dangerous. Her love of westerns and immersive storytelling began on Saturday mornings spent alternating between watching John Wayne movies with her dad and raiding his library for Tolkien novels and Dick Francis mysteries. Born and raised on the outskirts of the SeaTac area of western Washington, she has a healthy appreciation for moody weather and the use of dark chocolate and coffee as coping mechanisms for whatever life throws her way. As an Air Force veteran and military spouse, Tanya has hopscotched across the world before finally transplanting to the Gulf Coast side of Tampa Bay. When she isn’t writing or wandering around local parks trying to spot the swamp puppies, she can usually be found lost in the 900s section of her local library.
