Kyle Mills

I grew up in Oregon but have lived all over—D.C., Virginia, Maryland, London,
Wyoming. My father was an FBI agent and I was a bureau kid, which is similar to being an army brat. You tend to spend your time with other bureau kids and get transferred around a lot, though, I fared better on that front than many others.

One positive aspect of this lifestyle is that you can’t help but absorb an enormous amount about the FBI, CIA, Special Forces, etc. Like most young boys, I was endlessly fascinated with talk of chasing criminals and, of course, pictured it in the most romantic terms possible. Who would have thought that all this esoteric knowledge would end up being so useful?

Brad Lee

As a kid, I wanted to be a writer. After several fun careers, I've finally realized that dream.

It's both easier and more difficult than I thought it would be. When the words are flowing, it's miraculous. I feel like I'm taking dictation, typing the words that are meant to be written.

When the ideas don't come, I go for a run, think about what I would love to read, then start again.

Little by little, stories take shape, characters get into trouble, work their way out, and a book gets written.

Now, with over 17,000 5-star reviews of my books, I feel incredibly blessed that people enjoy my stories.
