Kenneth Wishnia is an award-winning novelist and associate professor of English at Suffolk Community College, known for socially conscious crime fiction and Jewish-themed historical novels. His work has been nominated for the Edgar Allan Poe, Anthony, and Macavity awards, and recognized by The Washington Post Book World as a “Rave” Book of the Year. Wishnia also edits the Jewish Noir anthologies and teaches writing on Long Island.

His novels explore justice, identity, belonging, prejudice, and power through vivid characters and sharp, realistic dialogue. In Red House, private investigator Filomena Buscarsela investigates a missing immigrant’s case in working-class Queens, uncovering a wider web of corruption and prejudice. His latest book, From Sun to Sun, interweaves two stories separated by twenty-five centuries: a Latina investigator’s search in modern New York City and Ruth’s struggle to survive in biblical times.
