Harris-Callway, Madeleine

Madeleine Harris-Callway

Madeleine is a retired management consultant who now writes full-time. Her first mystery short story was published in 1985 in the final issue of Mike Shayne Mystery Magazine, and she recently completed the manuscript of her first novel. She is a longstanding member of Crime Writers of Canada and Sisters in Crime.

Early in her career, Madeleine worked with the Ontario Ministry of Health’s disease control service, contagious disease outbreaks, and exposures to toxic chemicals. Her most fascinating case was assisting in the scientific investigation of the mysterious deaths at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, which led to a lifelong interest in crime – and crime writing. When not acting as “helper monkeys” for their budding film-maker daughter, Claire, Madeleine and her husband, Ed, share their Victorian home with three spoiled cats.
