Susan and Bill Albert's Book List

Susan and Bill had been writing for some time before they began to write mysteries for adults. At the request of readers, book collectors, and librarians, here is a list of all their books, organized according to the name or pseudonym they used. Susan’s books (written independently) are listed first; their co-authored books are listed second. Bill’s independent writing consists of the computer programs, documentation, and technical manuals he wrote in his previous incarnation as a systems analyst—he didn’t think you’d be interested in that stuff.
