edit data

S. T. Ashman is a German-American writer born and raised in Germany, now calling the beautiful U.S. Seacoast home. She once delved into the criminal justice system as a psychotherapist, a role that gifted her with a unique insight into the human psyche—both the beautiful and the deeply shadowed. In another life, she’d be a trench coat-wearing, mystery-solving female Columbo. Her mother’s lineage traces back thousands of years to the Frisians, a fierce Germanic tribe from the north. A history lover to the core, she explores not only her own ancestry but also Indigenous cultures around the world. She weaves history and cultural awareness into action-packed fiction that keeps readers turning pages late into the night.

S.T. Ashman answered Lisa's question: Wow... I haven't read four books that fast in years. Four days. I really hope you decide to continue the IKK trilogy. Are you really considering it? Thank you so much for reading the IKK series. And yes... I will write a 4th book at some point. I have started to form the story in my head. I am not sure if it will be my next book. I am publishing Secrets Like Ours in December and am about 1/3 done See Full Answer
