The Body Market: A Leine Basso Thriller (24 page)

 

 

About the Author:

 

DV Berkom
is a slave to the voices in her head. As the bestselling author of two award-winning thriller series
(Leine Basso
and
Kate Jones
), her love of creating resilient, kick-ass women characters stems from a lifelong addiction to reading spy novels, mysteries, and thrillers, and longing to find the female equivalent within those pages.

Raised in the Midwest, she earned a BA in political science from the University of Minnesota and promptly moved to Mexico to live on a sailboat. Several cross-country moves later, she now lives just outside of Seattle, Washington with the love of her life, Mark, a chef-turned-contractor, and several imaginary characters who like to tell her what to do. Her most recent books include
Cargo, The Body Market, Bad Traffick, A One Way Ticket to Dead,
and
Yucatán Dead.

Acknowledgements

 

I’d like to thank the following people for their amazing help and support in writing The Body Market: Mark Lindstrom—your mind is incredibly devious, and I love every twisted brain cell in it; my editor, Laurie Boris—without your talents and super-human attention to detail the book wouldn’t be nearly as good, not to mention as error-free; Al Kunz, for much the same; my stalwart writing group: Ali Mosa, Jenni Conner, Darlene Panzera, Sharon Kleve—you guys are the best writing partners a girl could have, and keep me from writing plot holes the size of planets; The Bodacious Betas: Ruth M. Ross-Saucier, Michelle Yelland, Brian Yelland, Bev Van Berkom, Larry Van Berkom, TSODA134—your early input and exacting standards make the stories I write so much better; Linton Robinson for all the great information on Tijuana;  Richard Buffington for the welding tutorial; Carly McElwee for putting up with my inane questions about texting and verbiage; Vicki Adams for some great plot ideas; and, last but not least, the ARC team: Barbara Rauch, Jen Blood, Sherry Fundin, Al Kunz, Carol Wyer, Cathy Speight, Trudy Brandenburg, Waynita Keeth-Suica, Garren Tooker, Sheli Story, Bill McElwee, Sonia Malingen, Kitty Wiemelt, and Charlie Ray. You guys ROCK.
