Stephanie Landsem is the award-winning author of six works of historical fiction. Her last release, Code Name Edelweiss, won a Carol Award and was praised by Publishers Weekly, who called it "a riveting spy story and a nuanced look at the way religion can either justify prejudice or fuel moral action . . . [that] will keep readers hooked to the last page."

Stephanie makes her home in Wisconsin with her husband, three ferocious cats, and a neurotic dog. Along with reading, writing, and research, she dreams about her next travel adventure—whether it be in person or on the page.
