Kelli Estes is the USA Today bestselling author of THE GIRL WHO WROTE IN SILK, which has been translated into twelve languages and was the recipient of the Pacific Northwest Writer’s Association Nancy Pearl Book Award, the Women’s Fiction Writers Association Star Award, and is currently under option for film/TV. Her second novel, TODAY WE GO HOME, was a nationwide Target Book Club pick. Kelli writes stories that show how history is still relevant to our lives today. Her lifelong love of Scotland has her learning the Scottish Gaelic language and the Scottish fiddle (both badly, but she’s working on it). Her most recent novel, SMOKE ON THE WIND, was inspired by her love of Scottish history and Scotland's long-distance trails. She has walked three of Scotland’s trails (so far) and is currently planning the next. Kelli lives in Washington State with her husband and two sons.
