Who are the Married Authors?

Published authors Janet Elizabeth Lynn and Will Zeilinger had been writing individually until they got together and wrote the Skylar Drake Mystery Series. These hard-boiled tales are based in old Hollywood of the 1950s. Their latest novel STONE PUB is a thriller set in 1962 and takes the reader to Ireland. Between the two of them, they have published 18 novels plus a couple of short stories. Their world travels have sparked several ideas for murder and crime stories.

This creative couple lives in Southern California…and they’re still married!
