Kory M. Shrum

USA TODAY bestselling author Kory M. Shrum has published more than thirty books, including the bestselling Shadows in the Water series.

She hosts two podcasts—Who Killed My Mother?, a true-crime podcast about her mother’s tragic death, and A Well Cared For Human, focused on practical strategies for wellbeing and personal transformation.

She also publishes poetry under the name K.B. Marie.

When not writing, speaking, or pursuing one of her 300 hobbies, she can usually be found under thick blankets with snacks. The kettle is almost always on.

She lives in Michigan with her equally bookish wife, Kim, and their rescue dog, Max. Visit her website and sign up for her newsletter to receive free, exclusive ebooks.
