About the Author

Andrea Heckner
I live in Wisconsin, with my husband. I have three grown sons and four grandchildren. When I'm not writing, you will find me spending time with my family or reading. As a child, I often made up stories to entertain my friends and siblings, and this continued when I had children of my own. My stories have evolved over the years as I have refined my style and found a genre that intrigues her: Crime Thrillers.
