Paula Munier is a USA Today bestselling author and literary agent known for the Mercy and Elvis mystery series. The series debuted with A Borrowing of Bones (2018), which was nominated for the Mary Higgins Clark Award and won the Dog Writers Association of America’s Dogwise Book of the Year. The books feature Mercy Carr, a former Army MP, and her retired bomb-sniffing Belgian Malinois named Elvis, who solve crimes together in the Green Mountains of Vermont.
Outside of the Mercy and Elvis series, Munier has published a standalone romance novel, Emerald’s Desire (2016), two novellas featuring the same characters (Rescue Me and 12 Dog Days of Christmas, both 2020), and a nonfiction book, Fixing Freddie (2010). Her background as a literary agent gives her an insider’s perspective on storytelling, which she brings to her own fiction.
