Chuck Bowie graduated from the University of New Brunswick in Canada with a Bachelor Degree in Science. He still lives in on the East Coast of Canada, between Maine and Nova Scotia. Growing up as an air force brat, his writing is influenced by the study of human nature and how people behave, habits he picked up as his family moved nineteen times in his first twenty one years. Chuck loves food, wine, music and travel and all play a role in his work.

His writing will often draw upon elements of these experiences to round out his characters and plotlines. Chuck is involved in the world of music, supporting local musicians, occasionally playing with them and always celebrating their successes.

He's just finished the fifth novel in the suspense-thriller series: Donovan: Thief For Hire. It's entitled Her Irish Boyfriend. It follows Three Wrongs, AMACAT, Steal It All, and The Body on the Underwater Road..

In the meantime Chuck, writing as Alexa Bowie has just published a new 'Cozy Mystery' series, set in the fictional town of Newcastle, in Canada. The first novel: Death Between the Walls, and the second: Death Between the Tables are already out. Book Three: Death Between the Decks drops in January, 2023. Stay tuned!

Chuck is married, with two adult musician sons, Jon and Matt. He and his wife Lois live in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada.
