         Hi, I'm Susan Paré and welcome to my website. I started writing mystery novels in 2015 at the age of 76. I now have 24 novels and 1 short story published on Amazon. My books are easy reading and fun. I love to leave my readers saying, "I didn't see that coming" and a lot - really, a lot - of them do just that. My books are listed below and you can read a short synopsis and excerpt for each book by clicking on the cover pictures.

         Please take a moment and look around my site. Check out my reviews - I'm proud to say that the majority of them are 5 star reviews. 

         I'd love it if you'd subscribe to my reader's list (you can do that at bottom of page) or contact me with your questions and comments.

“three points”

The Unsolved Murder of Ray Sullivan

 

Frankie Sullivan didn’t just wake up one morning and decide to kill. Although she didn’t realize it, the thought had been percolating in the back of her brain for some time now. Probably since the first time he had hit her. Most definitely after he killed her baby.

 ‘Thou shall not kill’, the bible commands. Of course, it also says ‘an eye for an eye’, she thought. So, until God and all those men in heaven make up their minds, ‘an eye for an eye’ works for me.

In her new novel, “three points”, Paré proves that you can get away with murder. You just have to die first. Read more...

HALF COVER JPEG WITH BAT.jpg

1954

Deep in the woods, sheltered away in a convent, a young girl, about to give birth, screams in pain but receives no sympathy. Too many years have passed, and too many wayward girls have come through their doors for the nuns to care any longer.

 

          1994

Monica cries out in pain as her husband’s fist slams into her face, and she drops to the floor.

Hope answers her front door, and a shot rings out, barely missing her head.

Monica didn’t go to work today. She’s soaking in the tub, trying to ease the pain from her battered body.

Hope isn’t having a good day. Someone just tried to kill her, and she’s almost sure she knows who it was.

 

This is a story about sisters - unaware that the other exists – in toxic marriages - alone – afraid - and feeling helpless.

Until, that is - one day, they meet, and a plan is born.

The Finger had me laughing over murder and the ensuing cover up. I know. It seems strange to use laughing and murder in the same sentence. The book had me quickly turning pages, finished reading in one sitting. Apparently, cats like finger food, too. 😂

In 2014, I wrote a short book for my family about growing up in the ‘40s and ‘50s, called “Blueberries and Bears and my Brother’s Shoes.”  I wanted my boys to know what life was like when I was growing up. My family enjoyed it and encouraged me to continue writing. I didn’t need much encouragement.  I had the writing bug. So, I decided to try my hand at writing fiction. Although, a little concerned about not having a formal education in writing, I gave it a go. And, a new career was born.
