At age 9, Gail Baugniet's first attempt at writing a novel resulted in Ergo Death. The story involved a murder and a narrow coal chute that led to the basement of the family home in Wisconsin. She later composed poems and haiku poetry for her private enjoyment.

Over the years, reading and writing were an integral part of Gail's eclectic history of employment as an insurance underwriter, statistical coder, and claims adjuster; as a professional realtor; as a police reservist and part time peace officer; and finally, as a security dispatcher.

Now that Gail has free time to write novels again, her lifetime experiences offer plenty of background material for her planned mystery series. Her first self-published novel FOR EVERY ACTION There Are Consequences, released in 2011, introduces Hawaiian-born Pepper Bibeau as an Insurance Investigator whose routine assignments lead her through a maze of suspense.

Gail currents resides in Honolulu, Hawaii, where she is at work completing her second novel in the series for release in 2012.
