Overview

From the best-selling author of the Mermaid Asylum series comes a deeply chilling prequel short story on the ugliness of grief, the pain of abandonment, and the purifying power of fire.

About the Author

Former cognitive psychologist turned suspense writer, Mary is a firm believer in strong, twisted female characters and unhappy endings. Her internet search history is not for the faint of heart.

As a freelance writer and humorist, Mary’s essays have been featured on The Washington Post, Brain, Child Magazine, and Scary Mommy. She has also appeared on a Wisconsin Public Radio morning show discussing the psychology of parenting. Mary does not perform well at 5:30am.

Raised near Portland, Oregon, Mary now lives in central Illinois where the tallest thing for miles is corn. She shares a perpetually shrinking house with her three kids, two dogs, and two cats…and can usually be found writing under at least one of them at all times.
