Julie Hyzy

Julie Hyzy is an American author of mystery fiction.

Life and career
Hyzy writes a series of books about sleuth Alex St James, a news researcher, which combines mystery and adventure, and another about Olivia Paras, assistant chef at the White house, which sits in the subgenre "culinary mysteries". Her State of the Onion, from the latter series, won an Anthony Award and other awards. She has a third series, the Manor House Mysteries, featuring amateur sleuth Grace Wheaton, curator of palatial Marshfield Manor.
