Ela HughELA HUGH is a Toronto-based author, lawyer and mother. She was born and raised in Ottawa, Canada, to parents of French Canadian and Chinese Jamaican decent. From a young age, Ela was insatiably curious and longed to explore the world around her. Befoe she was ever able to travel, Ela satiated her thirst for adventure through a love of books. In her youth, she read every mystery she could lay her hands on, including every story ever written by Agatha Christie and Arthur Conan Doyle. Her love of mysteries is paralleled only by her passion for the fantastical. She is an avid Trekkie, devoted Marvel fan, and general supporter of all things 'magic' or 'make-believe'. Ela's debut novel, 'The Aurora Antidote', first took shape in her mind over ten years ago, following her second year of law school and a summer spent backpacking through Japan, China and South East Asia. The tale and many of its characters have their roots in East Asian mythology. When Ela isn't reading or writing, you can usually find her planning her next adventure, or enjoying the outdoors with her husband and young son.
