Elizabeth Berrett

Elizabeth Berrett writes about the divine hiding in plain sight—in biotech labs, Vatican corridors, and wherever else it’s been overlooked.

Her debut novel, The Alchemy of Wonder, an upmarket women’s fiction story, was completed in January 2026. It follows a geneticist whose career-ending scandal sends her across the country under a false name to uncover the woman her father nearly left everything for.

Her next novel, Beyond the See, a Vatican thriller about a Swiss Guard who uncovers a plot to assassinate the pope, is expected in August 2026.

Before turning to fiction, she spent two decades as a strategy consultant at McKinsey, a product manager at Intuit, a chief customer officer in tech, and a CEO of a specialty flood and fire restoration company. She’s also an executive coach, a certified sommelier, and a trained Pilates instructor—because one career was never going to be enough.

She lives in Phoenix, AZ.
