Lindsay Faye

Lindsay Faye moved to Manhattan in 2005 to audition for work as a professional actress; she found her days more open when the powers that be elected to knock her day-job restaurant down with bulldozers. Her first novel, Dust and Shadow: an Account of the Ripper Killings by Dr. John H. Watson, is a tribute to the aloof genius and his good-hearted friend whose exploits she has loved since childhood.
