Irene Hawley

Irene Hawley is the author of The Blue Vase, a collection of short fiction spanning prairie communities, Caribbean settings, city life, and desert landscapes.

Blending family drama, mystery, suspense, and touches of the uncanny, Hawley writes about human frailty with an eye for cultural setting and emotional consequence.
