Debra Schroeder lives with her husband, John, in a beautiful valley in Northern California near the Oregon border, enjoying a rural lifestyle, their property a haven for deer and their babies. Debra enjoys shooting pool with her friends, (human or canine!) playing killer ping-pong, and reading great fiction.
Debra also loves writing hair-raising psychological thrillers that keep readers up after midnight. Her first novel sets the stage for a series featuring Adeline Dubé, a survivor of a traumatic past who has finally created a life she loves. In What Follows Behind, her world is about to be upended by someone with a twisted mind, hiding in the shadows, watching her every move, waiting…
COMING SOON…The Devil’s Hotel is a tale of greed, terror, and how one woman can stand up against a criminal syndicate intent on turning her remote and beloved property into a world-class hotel and resort.

About Debra
I have lived in California my entire life, except for one bone-chilling year in Chicago when I was thirty-seven. I skedaddled back home to the desert near Palm Springs as soon as possible, yearning for sunny skies and warm fingers and toes.
Ten years ago my husband John and I moved to Northern California near the Oregon border, seeking peace and quiet as we looked toward retirement. We now live in a beautiful but spooky old house. I do my best writing at night when the wind is whispering through the trees, leaves scuttle across the roof, and strange noises creep around my writing cubbyhole.
My journey to writing novels began with a love of reading at age four or five, starting with Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Suess. Through all phases of my life, good and bad, great stories have sustained me, filled me with joy, scared me, and at times saddened me. But all opened my eyes to a sparkling universe of fascinating places and unforgettable characters.
Now, after a career in civil engineering / land development (which included tons of writing, but nothing fun or exciting) I have written three novels, all psychological thrillers with the same heroine, a troubled and haunted woman trying to retain her sanity and way of life.
I hope my stories will bring great enjoyment to my readers, and also keep them up at night!
