Raised on episodes of Sea Hunt and Jacques Cousteau documentaries, Richard (Rick) Meredith, a native of Flint, Michigan, longed for a life at sea. After moving to California in the Navy, he remained to finish college. His career as a marine scientist and wildlife biologist have provided rich fodder for his writing. His newest novel, Maskirovka—The Russian Science of Deception, which received a Starred Review from Kirkus Reviews and made its list of 100 Best Indie Books of 2022, draws heavily on his work as an analyst in the petroleum industry. The book was a Winner of a Book Excellence Award in 2024 in the mystery category. It was also finalist for the Readers’ Choice Award at the 2023 Killer Nashville Mystery, Thriller, and Suspense Writers Conference. His years on commercial fishing boats in the Pacific formed the backdrop of his thriller, The Crow’s Nest, which won the Silver Falchion Award for the Best Action-Adventure novel in 2021 at Killer Nashville. His upcoming novel, The Double Cross of Brigid, was a finalist in the Action-Adventure category for the Claymore Award in 2023 at Killer Nashville. Rick is a member of Mystery Writers of America and is President of Capitol Crimes, the Sacramento area chapter of Sisters-in-Crime. When not writing, he enjoys travel, bird and wildlife watching, Scuba diving, guitars, rock concerts, and most sports. He is married with two children and four grandchildren.
