Lyndsay Constable has been a passionate reader since her early teen years and frequently selected books that could successfully be hidden behind the person sitting in front of her in class. Originally from North Carolina, she attended both North Carolina School of the Arts and SUNY Purchase. She currently lives in Virginia with her husband, child, dog, cat and a small murder of crows who refuse to become friendly with her despite all of the peanuts she has given them. Her previous novels include The Puzzled Heiress, An Excellent Walker, Never Inconstant, and A Lover's Fine Eye.
