Minnesota Mystery Night

A private investigator by day, Katrina Monroe is the author of They Drown Our Daughters, Graveyard of Lost Children, and Through the Midnight Door. She has published several titles under small presses that are no longer in print, but are still very close to her heart. When she isn’t writing, you can find her curled up under a blanket, mug of tea in hand, rewatching episodes of The Great British Bake-Off, or in the kitchen attempting (and mostly failing) to recreate the incredible bakes 

Kathleen West’s novels have been best- books picks by Real Simple, Newsweek, People Magazine, Entertainment Weekly, Good Morning America, and the New York Post. A schoolteacher with more than 20 years’ experience, Kathleen writes about ambition, competitive parenting, and most recently, homicide and stealing. Her next book, Making Friends Can Be Murder, will be published in June 2025. She is a lifelong Minnesotan and lives in Minneapolis with her family.
