Bill Percy, an award-winning Idaho writer, draws on his experiences as a psychotherapist to write vivid, engaging tales of people confronting painful and challenging mysteries. His most recent book in the Monastery Valley series is "The Bishop Burned the Lady," released April 12, 2018, is available on Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, and BlackRoseWriting.com. "Nobody’s Safe Here" and "Climbing the Coliseum," the second and first in the series, were both named Distinguished Favorites or Finalists in three important competitions. Two more novels featuring Ed, Andi, Grace, and the people of Monastery Valley will follow. Bill was born in Buffalo, NY, where he was taught by the nuns. He moved at 13 to Scottsdale, AZ, where he was taught by the Jesuits. He practiced psychology in Minneapolis, MN, where all that good influence went for naught and disappointed his grandmother, who'd decided he'd be a priest. Now he lives with his wife and best reader, Michele Brooks, in north Idaho. His children live in Minneapolis and in Stevensville, Montana.
