KAREN DONAHUE

Karen Donahue’s love of the sea (boater, surfer, and kayaker) took her to the beautiful coast of Santa Barbara where she received her doctorate at the University of California. An expert in International law, she is a professor and chair of the Criminology Department at a Southern California university. Her research and lecturing have often taken her to Europe and Africa. As a visiting researcher at the United Nations in Geneva, she worked in the archives examining centuries old documents of monarchs, government officials, and business leaders. It seemed natural to write Mystery Thrillers.
