Mary Ellis is an author who began her career writing Amish fiction before expanding into cozy mysteries, historical romance, and suspense. Her Miller Family series (2009-2012) and Wayne County series (2011) are set in Amish communities and follow characters balancing tradition with personal desires. The Amish Miracle novellas continue this thread with shorter stories of faith and providence.
Her Secrets of the South Mysteries moved her into cozy mystery territory, with four books set in Southern cities from Mississippi to Savannah. The Bourbon Tour Mystery series brings the mystery format to Kentucky bourbon country. Her Civil War Heroines trilogy and Kate Weller suspense series show yet another side of her writing, moving from historical settings to modern-day revenge plots.
Ellis has published over twenty-five books spanning three decades. Her earlier Amish fiction laid the groundwork for a career that has grown to encompass a wide variety of genres, all unified by strong female characters and clean, faith-influenced storytelling.
