More About the Author

New York Times and USA Today best selling author, Heather Graham was born somewhere in Europe and kidnapped by gypsies when she was a small child. She went on to join the Romanian circus as a trapeze artist and lion tamer. When the circus came to South Florida, she stayed, discovering that she preferred to be a shark and gator trainer.

Not really.

Heather is the child of Scottish and Irish immigrants who met and married in Chicago, and moved to South Florida, where she has spent her life. (She has, at least, been to the Russian circus in Moscow, where she wished she was one of the incredibly talented and coordinated trapeze artists.) She majored in theater arts at the University of South Florida. After a stint of several years in dinner theater, back-up vocals, and bartending, she stayed home after the birth of her third child and began to write. Her first book was with Dell, and since then, she has written over one hundred and fifty novels and novellas including category, suspense, historical romance, vampire fiction, time travel, occult, horror, and Christmas family fare.

She is pleased to have been published in approximately twenty-five languages, and has had over seventy-five million books in print. She has been honored with awards from Walden Books, B. Dalton, Georgia Romance Writers, Affaire de Coeur, Romantic Times, the Lifetime Achievement Award from RWA and more. Heather has also become the proud recipient of the Silver Bullet from Thriller Writers. Heather has had books selected for the Doubleday Book Club and the Literary Guild, and has been quoted, interviewed, or featured in such publications as The Nation, Redbook, Mystery Book Club, People and USA Today and appeared on many newscasts including Today, Entertainment Tonight and local television.

Heather loves travel and anything that has to do with the water, and is a certified scuba diver. She also loves ballroom dancing. Each year she hosts the Vampire Ball and Dinner theater at the RT convention raising money for the Pediatric Aids Society and in 2006 she hosted the first Writers for New Orleans Workshop to benefit the stricken Gulf region. She is also the founder of "The Slush Pile Players", presenting something that's almost like entertainment for various conferences and benefits. Married since high school graduation and the mother of five, her greatest love in life remains her family, but she also believes her career has been an incredible gift, and she is grateful every day to be doing something that she loves so very much for a living.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect from Beginning to End, November 22, 2005

This review is from: Ghost Walk (Mira) (Mass Market Paperback)

I am shocked that there are low stars on this. I don't see how anyone could be disappointed. The characters are well-developed, the suspense is tight, the prose is engaging and intelligent, and the ghost story is enthralling. I picked this up at the airport and inhaled it, it was so good. Over much too fast. I hope others of her books are as good. If you like supernatural at ALL, like mysteries at ALL or romance, you won't be disappointed. Neither theme takes over, but all readers should be satiated because this book is strong is each category.

This review is from: Ghost Walk (Mira) (Mass Market Paperback)

This was the first book by Heather Graham that I picked up and read, and is still my favorite after reading several more. I loved the story, loved the paranormal aspects, loved the characters. I would truly enjoy seeing a sequel; another adventure with this group of people.

This review is from: Ghost Walk (Mira) (Mass Market Paperback)

I don't agree with the more negative reviews presented here. I enjoyed this book very much. I love Heather Graham writing ghost stories and hope she will continue to do so. I didn't find this book as riveting as Haunted, but definitely looked forward to picking it up after work until it was done.
