Christine Carbo grew up in Gainesville, Florida, until she moved to Kalispell, Montana, when she was twelve. After earning a pilots license, pursuing various adventures in Norway, and a brief stint as a flight attendant, she got an MA in English and Linguistics and taught writing, linguistics, and literature courses at a community college. She still teaches, in a vastly different realm, as the owner of a Pilates studio. She and her husband live in Whitefish, Montana, with their three kids, one incredibly silly dog, and one very self-possessed cat.

Christine Carbo recommends

No Lie Lasts Forever (2025)
(Flynn Martin Thriller, book 1)
Mark Stevens
"An ingenious and masterfully written thriller, No Lie Lasts Forever is filled with a killer's interesting and twisted insights and a fully realized main character's authentic struggles in TV journalism. The killer's chilling correspondences to the journalist, Flynn Martin, launch her on a journey every reader will find harrowing and wholly intriguing. Rarely in a thriller am I compelled to reread passages, but Mark Stevens' sharp writing had me doing just that. Visceral, cerebral, and spell-binding, No Lie Lasts Forever will grab you and force you to hold on tight until the last page."

The Cabin on Souder Hill (2020)
Lonnie Busch
"Lonnie Busch masterfully captures both the ordinary and the extraordinary in unsentimental, commanding prose in the chilling and atmospheric Cabin on Souder Hill. When the husband of the main character, Michelle Stage, disappears in the Appalachian woods searching for the source of a strange light below their cabin, she soon follows, tumbling into an alternate reality. From then on, just like Michelle, I was caught and couldn't put it down. Busch's instinctive understanding of love and loss makes the surreal seem real. He never skips a suspenseful beat as he explores the painful trails love and loss make in our world with clear-eyed affection and wit. All his characters, unique and fully realized, take you to surprising places and some will make you laugh - even as you begin to question reality."

Mesa Verde Victim (2020)
(National Park Mystery, book 6)
Scott Graham
"Masterfully plotted in confident pose...adventurous and fascinating."
