As a novelist, Emily Saso’s voice, dark humour and style have been compared to Margaret Atwood. Her darkly funny debut novel, The Weather Inside, explores one woman’s vendetta against Jehovah’s Witnesses in Toronto. Her latest novel, Nine Dash Line, is an epic geopolitical drama about two mysterious people exiled in the South China Sea.

In her other work life, Emily is a freelancer with years of experience as a journalist, script writer, producer, communications manager, and editorial and art director. She holds her master’s degree in political science with a specialization in international relations and security studies.
