Nicole Lundrigan is a distinguished author of literary fiction and thriller novels, hailing from Canada. She was born and raised in Upper Gullies, Newfoundland, where she developed her love for storytelling. During high school, Lundrigan participated in a semester-long exchange program, living with a Baron and Baroness in the Chateau de Prouzel in Amiens, France. This experience exposed her to new cultures and broadened her perspective, which would later influence her writing.
Lundrigan earned her BSc from the University of New Brunswick and went on to complete her BA with honors in anthropology from Saint Mary's University in Halifax. She then pursued her MSc from the University of Toronto. After graduation, Lundrigan embarked on a career in freelance writing before transitioning to fiction. Her writing style is both elegant and darkly humorous, often delivering bare-knuckle social commentary that resonates with fans of Gillian Flynn, Karin Fossum, and Laura Lippman.
Lundrigan is the author of eight novels, including "The Substitute," "Hideaway," and "An Unthinkable Thing." Her work has received critical acclaim, with several of her novels selected as top picks by Canada's national newspaper, the Globe & Mail, and making the top 100 on Amazon.ca. She has also been shortlisted for the Arthur Ellis Award for Best Crime Novel. Lundrigan currently resides in Ontario, Canada, with her husband and children.
