Welcome to One Candle Press

At One Candle Press, we are dedicated to publishing stories of faith, resilience, mystery, and the complexities of the human heart to inspire and entertain. Our small, individually owned press prioritizes quality and creativity, ensuring that every book we produce reflects our values and vision.

One Candle Press is an independent, author-owned Oregon publishing company and the home of Christian mystery author Claire O’Sullivan. The press publishes clean, character-driven mysteries blending police-procedural and forensic detail with suspense, humor, developing faith, and complicated human relationships.

O’Sullivan’s novels were originally published between 2019 and 2026. Revised and updated editions are being released under the One Candle Press imprint between 2026 and 2028, alongside new titles in her Grit & Grace Mystery series.
