Melinda Mullet

Melinda Mullet is an American author from Dallas Texas best known for writing a series of mystery fiction novels set in Scotland. Melinda was born to British parents who at the time were living in the Unites States. Mullet grew up in Texas and in the United Kingdom and went to study English Literature in Washington D.C. She also studied in Austria and thereafter pursued a career in international law. After practicing as an attorney for several years, Mullet would quit the legal profession and embark on a professional writing career. She loves to style herself as a travel junkie, a former advocate, and lifelong advocate for international and domestic child literacy causes. In her quest for childhood literacy, she works with many international and domestic charities that promote functional literacy across the world. As an author, she is best known for the “Whisky Business Mystery” series of novels of which “Single Malt Murder” the first novel in the series was published in 2017. Mullet had always had stories running around in her mind, even when she was a practicing lawyer spending copious amounts of time writing professionally for her clients and for herself. However, she never got the time to write fiction, which was one of those things she always wanted to do since she was a child. Once she got away from all the legal writing, she found she had all the time to find expression for all the ideas she had never had the time to articulate. Melinda lives with her husband and two daughters in Washington D.C., from where she writes her whisky novels.
