Lori Lacefield

Lori is a writer of suspense thrillers including the Frankie Johnson, FBI Local Profiler Series, and the Women of Redemption Series.

Each book in the FBI Local Profiler Series features behavioral analysis along with local and federal police procedure as Frankie is called to the scene of a brutal crime, and must work with the various branches of law enforcement to hunt a brutal killer. Each book also focuses on a different aspect of police procedure, such as interrogation techniques, crime scene examination, and forensic photography. 99 Truths is the first in the Frankie Johnson, FBI Local Profiler Series.

The Women of Redemption Series features ordinary women who become entangled in extraordinary circumstances when their past deeds circle back in ways they never expected. Lori's books center around flawed, but realistic, characters who must face the consequences that have resulted from their choices and actions. These women aren't perfect, but perfectly kick-ass when given a second chance. Each book can be read as a stand-alone as every novel focuses on a different protagonist with the central theme of redemption.

Lori began her writing journey at the age of fourteen, making up stories about teens navigating the precarious world between childhood and adulthood. Those troubles seem tame compared to the entanglements of blackmail, murder, and misconduct her characters find themselves in now. Lori attended her first writing conference more than twenty years ago, and since has studied the art and craft of fiction writing through attending many conferences, picking the brains of best-selling authors, and studying numerous writing references.

Lori is a lover of coffee, books, music, yoga, pilates, wine, travel, and most of all dogs. She lives in Colorado with three adorable Pomeranians.
