Collection: D'Arcy's Books

D’Arcy Kavanagh’s working life has centred on journalism and telling stories. He worked as a reporter and editor for newspapers before becoming a freelance writer for magazines and newspapers in North America and overseas. 

Later, he took to the classroom to teach journalism, retiring in 2012 and then working with his wife Lynda with their strategic brand marketing company and a travel consulting company called WOW Tours International Inc. 

A lifelong fan of the open road, D’Arcy has travelled overseas dozens of times. Usually, his trips have focused on travelling by bicycle. A self-described “cycling fanatic”, he has toured in more than 25 countries over 45years. He estimates by 2025, he has travelled by bike well over 450,000 km. (See where D’Arcy has travelled.) 

D’Arcy has combined his travelling, cycling and journalism and has written five books. They are murder mysteries and he has very loyal followers of readers (all asking when the next book will be out... he is working on it). 

Although this is a series, each book can be read individually. 

The first two books, The Bastard is Dead and A Vintage End, have been published by BHC Press in the U.S. Both are available in print and in audio from Audible and Amazon. The remaining three books in the series, including the first two can be purchased here.
