Terry Odell is a romantic suspense and mystery author who has been publishing since 2006. She began her writing career with short stories and novellas before releasing her first full-length novels in the Pine Hills Police series. Her books typically pair strong female characters with law enforcement or private security heroes, and the stories move between romance and suspense without settling fully into either camp.
Her longest-running series is Blackthorne, Inc., which follows operatives at a private security firm who take on dangerous assignments around the world. The Mapleton Mystery series takes a different approach, focusing on small-town police chief Gordon Hepler as he investigates crimes in a quiet Colorado mountain community. The Triple-D Ranch series moves the action to a Colorado dude ranch, while the Pine Hills Police books are set in a small Florida town.
Odell has published 52 books across her various series, including short story collections, anthologies, and non-fiction about the writing craft. She continues to add new entries to her Blackthorne, Inc. and Mapleton Mystery series.
