Susan Walter is the author of four novels of suspense: Lie by the Pool, Good as Dead, Over Her Dead Body, and Running Cold. She was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts. After being given every opportunity—and failing—to become a concert violinist, Walter attended Harvard University. She had hoped to be a newscaster, but the local TV station hired her to write and produce promos instead. Seeking sunshine and a change of scenery, she moved to Los Angeles to work in film and television production. Upon realizing writers were having all the fun, Walter transitioned to screenwriting, then directing. She wrote and made her directorial debut with the 2017 film All I Wish, starring Sharon Stone.
