ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Author Sharon Fernicola

Sharon Fernicola is a writer drawn to layered mysteries,

emotional realism, and characters who challenge assumptions. Her fascination with crime and justice began early, watching Perry Mason with her father and falling in love with the genre’s blend of intellect and drama. Her debut novel, Trial by Town, explores the fragile line between perception and truth in a small town desperate to preserve its legacy.

In her 70s, Sharon completed three triathlons, obtained dual

Italian–American citizenship, and wrote her first book—living

proof that bold dreams don’t come with an expiration date. She brings a poetic sensibility to her storytelling, blending suspense with empathy and nuance. When she’s not writing, she’s mapping out her next adventure or putting in time at the gym, always chasing the next challenge with curiosity and grit.

Bio

REVIEWS

"

I enjoyed this story a lot. I had one moment where I thought maybe I knew who the killer was but then I disregarded it, so I ended up still being surprised by the twist! I thought it was an engaging and interesting story that will leave a lot of people guessing until the end. I would recommend this book to suspense fans looking for something new to sink their teeth into.

I couldn’t shake this story for days.  Every chapter pulled me deeper into the town’s secrets, and by the end I felt I’d lived through the trial myself.

"

A powerful, unsettling mystery.  I kept thinking I knew where it was going, and every time I was wrong in the best possible way.  I don't have anyone for this quote yet.  We can make it up.
