Short Essay on Catherine Coulter's FBI series

October 2020

The FBI series all came about through serendipity. At a family reunion my sister came up to me and said, without preamble, "Have you ever heard of a little town on the coast of Oregon called The Cove? They make the world's greatest ice cream and bad stuff happens." I went en pointe, told my publisher I wanted to write a suspense thriller. They weren't all that enthusiastic since they contracted me to write long historical romances. I dug in my three-inch heels, finished the current historical I was writing for them in six weeks, a record, and wrote THE COVE, and that's how the FBI series got started. THE COVE was an instant New York Times bestseller, settled in for nine weeks on the list, and naturally, the publisher now wanted more - how about an FBI series? I had made my hero in THE COVE, James Quinlan, an FBI agent. Why? It sounded sexy. Now it meant I had to make lots of friends in the FBI in Washington.

Incredibly, I'm now writing the 25th FBI thriller, titled VORTEX, and I think back over the many books and years and I can only shake my head and smile. Yay, serendipity.
