Monique L. Stover writes the kind of mysteries best enjoyed with coffee, scones, and a purring cat nearby. A Southern California native with a background in anthropology and forensic science, she brings a sharp eye for detail—and a soft spot for feline sidekicks—to her Madeline Quinn Mystery series. When she’s not plotting fictional crimes, Monique can be found at book club, on the tennis court, or sharing her home with her music producer husband and three opinionated cats (one of whom insists on being in every book).
Also writes as M. L. Stover.
