Roxanne Rose 1 is a retired Nurse Practitioner and now a mystery writer. After an extensive career in medicine, including critical care nursing, teaching, and legal nurse consulting, in retirement, she became enthusiastic about storytelling.

Dividing her time between the quiet beauty of Maine and the sunny warmth of Florida, Roxanne brings her love of small-town life to the reader. Her mystery novels are filled with nosy neighbors, enigmatically buried secrets, and the kind of cozy charm only a New England village can offer; however, there’s always a twist just beneath the surface.

When she’s not writing or tending to her flower and vegetable gardens, you’ll find her enjoying time with her children and grandchildren, reading, or walking with her Cavachon dog, Roxanne III. Her stories reflect her life’s passions: perpetual learning, understanding people, resolving problems compassionately— roles that are now evident in the realism and emotional depth of her fiction.
