Meet Heather

Heather Hill Burford is  passionate about her family, her dogs, love of nature, writing and painting. Heather incorporates all her interests in her writing. 

As a retired teacher, she is busier than ever. Whether it be art classes, writing, hiking, skiing or taking you on an adventure in the books she writes.

I had the chance to Beta read the first few chapters. They were riveting and suspenseful. I can’t wait to read the completed book, first of the Ellie Smith Detectives.

Heather’s Vision

Heather Hill Burford is committed to linking her written characters with the nuance in small Northern Ontario towns like Parry Sound on Georgian Bay. Heather spent her childhood summering at the family cottage in the area. She continues to be influenced by her love of cottage country and all its impacts.  Heather finds a sense of community and neighbourly kindness interwoven in the fabric of these towns. Her vision is to give the readers both in young adult mysteries and cozy mysteries, a sense of belonging in these towns alongside the characters. An introduction to life in Northern Ontario, its wonderful people and community spirit for all to read.
