Caron Pescatore

Caron Pescatore was born in London, England. At age five, her family moved to Jamaica, where she spent her childhood. At seventeen, she migrated to the United States and pursued a career as a registered nurse, ironically the only profession on her never-to-do list! After practicing nursing for several years, Caron returned to school and studied law, obtaining her J.D. degree in 2001. She practiced law for many years, working as a public defender and then as a deputy district attorney in Los Angeles County, CA. With the birth of her first child, she left the profession to become a stay-at-home mom, her most challenging career! Pescatore’s passion for the law, her love of reading stories with her children, and her desire to share her professional life with them motivated Caron to write the Kids’ Court Whodunit series. She searched for books to give her children an inside peak into her profession and discovered there were none. So she decided to write one, and thus came the idea for a book about a group of children starting a court and resolving disagreements between kids in their neighborhood—one story led to another. Caron’s absolute favorite pastime is reading. She enjoys various genres, but her first love is a historical romance, especially during the medieval and regency periods. She loves watching true-crime shows, solving mysteries and puzzles, creating personalized plaques, and adult coloring. Caron Pescatore has lived in three countries and three states. Presently, she resides in Florida with her husband and two children. Caron loves hearing from her readers, so connect with her, @caronpescatore, on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok.
