A.V. Pham is a forensic scientist by day and author by night and on weekends. Her stories are a patchwork of the many case files she encounters daily. When a particular case became an itch she couldn’t stop scratching, its many curiosities gave breath to her debut novel, Maelstrom. A native Houstonian, she currently lives with her husband and goofy Labrador retriever, Guinness. They recently just welcomed a baby boy to the family! When she’s not writing, she’s out exploring new watering holes and restaurants, preferably ones with AC to escape the Texas heat.
