Jane Gorman is the author of the Adam Kaminski mystery series and the Cape May Cozy Mysteries with a Twist. Formerly an anthropologist, a diplomat and a park ranger (not all at the same time!) Gorman draws on her life experiences in each of her books. Gorman is a member of the Sisters in Crime and a former president of the Delaware Valley Chapter. She loves writing almost as much as she loves reading, and is always interested in hearing about a good book!
