Ellie Alexander is a Pacific Northwest-based cozy mystery author whose books are steeped in food, drink, and small-town life. Her Bakeshop Mysteries series, set in Ashland, Oregon (home of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival), follows pastry chef Juliet “Jules” Capshaw as she runs her family’s bakeshop, Torte, and gets pulled into murder investigations. The series launched with Meet Your Baker in 2014 and has grown to over 20 books.
Her second major series, the Sloan Krause mysteries, trades baking for brewing. Set in Leavenworth, Washington — a Bavarian-themed village — the books follow a brewer who keeps finding dead bodies alongside her beer. Alexander has also launched several newer series including Meg Reed Investigates, Secret Bookcase Mysteries, and Novel Detectives Mystery, along with standalone novels and contributions to Cozy Case Files anthologies. She also writes under the name Kate Dyer-Seeley.
