Award-winning author, Leslie Wheeler writes two series: the Berkshire Hilltown Mysteries, and the Miranda Lewis Mysteries. Her short crime fiction has been published in many anthologies, including the Best New England Crime Stories series,, published by Level Best Books, where she was a co-editor/publisher and is now published by Crime Spell Books, where she holds the same position. She serves as Speakers Bureau Coordinator for SinC/NE and chairs the New England Crime Bake sponsored annual Al Blanchard Award Contest. She divides her time between Cambridge and a place in the Berkshires, where she writes in a house overlooking a pond.
