Kathryn Casey
Mystery and True Crime Author

I appreciate your dropping in. Since you're here, how about lingering and nosing around a bit?

As an award-winning journalist and author of six true crime books, I've spent twenty years writing about real cases, real people, real murders. It's been an amazing education on law enforcement and the criminal mind.

Now I've expanded into fiction, authoring the Sarah Armstrong mystery series. It all began with SINGULARITY, the pulse-pounding tale of a Texas Ranger hot on the trail of the strangest killer to ever stalk the Lone Star State. BOOKLIST magazine named it one of the Best Crime Novel Debuts of 2009! The thrills continued with the second in the series, BLOOD LINES, this time transporting readers inside two intense investigations, one involving a young superstar hunted by a bizarre stalker.

Are you ready for the third in the series? THE KILLING STORM arrived in bookstores in October. LIBRARY JOURNAL gave it a star, the highest of honors, and named it one of the best books of 2010! PUBLISHERS WEEKLY said, "Casey's turbulent third mystery featuring Texas Ranger Sarah Armstrong draws the criminal profiler into a breathless drama as scary as a hurricane's eye.... a terrifying cat-and-mouse game develops, pointing to more stormy weather ahead for Sarah, in the best in the series to date."

Want a glimpse inside the book? While you're here, click the top link on the left, and read THE KILLING STORM's first three chapters.

Those of you dedicated to true crime, don't worry! I'm not abandoning you. I plan to continue digging into sensational cases, pulling all the evidence together, doing my beset to answer all the questions, not just who, what, how and where, but the most important, why?

My latest true crime book debuted in July 2010. On Houston's David Temple case, SHATTERED tells the heartbreaking story of the murder of a young pregnant mother and a frustrating investigation that took nine years to bring into a courtroom.

What am I working on now? In 2012 watch for my book on Waco's Matt Baker case. Such a sad case, a young mother murdered by the man she loved, a man who claimed to represent God. But that's still in the future. Right here and now, you've arrived on my home page, so why not explore? Peruse sections on individual books and view photos, many never before published.

Thanks for stopping. Feel free to drop in again, anytime. You're always welcome.
