About the Author
Gordon Aalborg began his writing career as a reporter, columnist and bureau chief at The Edmonton Journal in his native Alberta, Canada.
He wandered off to Australia in the ‘70s as a freelance journalist and radio/tv broadcaster – and, ultimately, reinvention as best-selling romance author, Victoria Gordon. Victoria was born in response to the publisher’s claim that “no man” could write Harlequin category romance (Gordon is widely believed to be the first man to seriously meet the challenge) , and she survives after more than twenty novels published throughout the world.
Gordon wrote the feline survival epic CAT
TRACKS as a result of his experiences
in Australia, where feral cats are a serious environmental problem. He
bushwalked and fished throughout the Canberra region where the book is
set. Many of his other books have a Tasmanian setting, and he considers
Tasmania his second home.
His move
to crime fiction followed Gordon’s return to Canada and
marriage to best-selling mystery author Denise
[Deni] Dietz. Their online
romance inspired the romantic suspense FINDING
BESS, but Gordon says writing
it was…difficult. “I kept trying to get everybody into bed,
and she kept wanting to kill them all off.”
Gordon’s
dramatic psycho-thriller, THE SPECIALIST is set in Tasmania and on Vancouver
Island,
where Gordon now lives.
He was founder and long-time president of the Tasmanian Gundog Trial Association and maintains an interest in working gundogs. In his spare time, he sculpts in wood.
