Mickey Hoffman was born in Chicago, and attended public schools where she acquired the strong suspicion that some of her teachers might be human. She wasn't able to prove this fanciful thinking until much later, when she became a high school teacher herself.

Before landing in the halls of academia, she worked in a variety of jobs, including computer typesetting and wholesale frozen fish sales.

The author is also a printmaker and painter. She resides on the West Coast with her long suffering mate, eight marine aquariums and a very large cat.

Mickey is the author of School of Lies, the first Kendra Desola mystery, and Deadly Traffic book two in the series.

The characters are so much alive in this book, you feel like they're part of your life after you finish reading. The setting is one that is completely foreign to me, but makes me think it might be safer in New York city. I guess maybe anyone can have ...more

I knew the identity of the killer very early in the book so the plot rather dragged for me.
