I write a mystery series set in the 1830s in a rough-and-tumble county in backwoods Pennsylvania, where an "accidental" sheriff named Gideon Stoltz solves crimes while battling his own griefs and travails. I also write books about nature. Readers tell me that my knowledge of the natural world informs my fiction.
You can get to know me through my author website, www.charlesfergus.com, and also sign up for my email newsletter about Sheriff Gideon, his life and times, and upcoming author events. If your book club chooses one of my mysteries to read and discuss, feel free to be in touch to set up a Zoom or other virtual meet-up. Libraries can contact me to arrange a chat as well.
Born and raised in central Pennsylvania, I now live on a farm in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. I love to spend time outdoors in all seasons, hiking, snowshoeing, and especially riding horses. I'm married to the writer Nancy Marie Brown.
