| Introduction | A high school history teacher obsessed with Hatshepsut and Theodora. I'd stalk them if I could, but they're kind of dead. So I wrote books about them instead. Represented by Marlene Stringer of Stringer Literary Agency. My debut novel, THE SECRET HISTORY, will be published by NAL/Penguin in July 2013. |
