Point Traverse Light House on a cold January day
From shipwrecks to lost love to the romantic legacy of the dance hall era, Kellough’s writing captures the essence of a unique people and a very special place.
An island perched on the north shore of Lake Ontario, Prince Edward County became home for some of the province’s earliest loyalist settlers. Kellough’s family has lived here for over two hundred years and her tangled relationships and profound sense of connection give her an intimate “insiders” view of a close-knit community. No secret is safe in “The County” - old stories, new stories, even street-corner gossip all find a place in her repertoire, whether she’s telling it from the stage or on the page.
Janet is on the Board of Directors of the Crime Writers of Canada.
" This is my home. This is my history. These are my stories."
