I'm Christina Boufis.
Thanks for finding my site! I write crime fiction—jail mysteries, domestic thrillers (as C.B. Peterson), and Victorian historical fiction. My newest series, co-written with Victoria Olsen, begins with Some Dark Force. It’s a Jack the Ripper meets Dracula in London, 1888. I also write a series set in the San Francisco County Jail, inspired by my years teaching there (I’ve never found a dead body—my heroine can’t say the same), plus domestic thrillers as C.B. Peterson.
Dark secrets. Dangerous choices. And the women who face them.
