Melissa Yi is an emergency physician and author whose heroine, resident Dr. Hope Sze, leaps from fixing ingrown toenails to solving full-blown murders while facing the seven deadly sins, most recently gluttony (Sugar and Vice), sloth on the way (Killing Me Sloth-LY). Melissa won the 2023 Derringer Award for the best short mystery in the English language and the Prix Aurora Award for the best speculative poem in Canada. She also loves dogs and snowflakes.
