A.L. Hatcher holds bachelor’s degrees in both forensic investigation and
forensic pathology as well as an associate degree in veterinary technology.
Because of her love of animals, she’s been a registered veterinary
technician for over 20 years. However, her passion for writing began in
childhood when she would write her own short stories and picture books.
Today, she spends her time caring for animals, reading, listening to true
crime podcasts, and writing fiction about crime, suspense, and all things
dark. She lives in the Midwest with her family, some chickens, and a menagerie of pets.
