Ceane O'Hanlon-Lincoln is a native of southwestern Pennsylvania, where she taught high school French until 1985. Already engaged in commercial writing, she immediately began pursuing a career writing both fiction and history. In the tradition of a great Irish seanchaí (storyteller), O'Hanlon-Lincoln has been called by many a "state-of-the-heart writer." In 1987, at Robert Redford's Sundance Institute, two of her screenplays made the "top twenty-five," chosen from thousands of nationwide entries. In 1994, she optioned one of those scripts to Kevin Costner; the other screenplay she reworked and adapted, in 2014, to the first of her Sleuth Sisters Mysteries, The Witches' Time-Key, conceived years ago when Ceane first visited Ireland. As she stood on the sacred Hill of Tara, the wind whispered ancient voices- ancient secrets. O'Hanlon-Lincoln never forgot that very mystical experience. Fire Burn and Cauldron Bubble is the second of the Sleuth Sisters Mysteries; The Witch's Silent Scream is the third in the series; Which Witch is Which? the fourth. Witch-Way is the fifth book of the bewitching Sleuth Sisters Mysteries. THE WITCH TREE is the sixth spellbinding Sleuth Sisters adventure. Watch for The Witch's Secret coming soon! In February 2004, O'Hanlon-Lincoln won the prestigious Athena, an award presented to professional "women of spirit" on local, national and international levels. The marble, bronze and crystal Athena sculpture symbolizes "career excellence and the light that emanates from the recipient." In 2014, Ceane O'Hanlon-Lincoln was inducted into her hometown of Connellsville, Pennsylvania's Hall of Fame. Ceane shares Tara, her century-old Victorian home, with her beloved husband Phillip and their champion Bombay cats, Black Jade and Black Jack O'Lantern. Her hobbies include travel, nature walks, theatre, film, antiques, and reading "... everything I can on Pennsylvania, American, and Celtic history, legend and lore."
