About the Author

Alyssa Moon grew up in the Pacific Northwest, which explains her undying enthusiasm for rainy weather. She does her best writing in tea shops, independent bookstores, and at home under her grapefruit tree. She lives in Southern California with her husband and her cat, Picklepop (the "real" Cornichonne), and with three other cats who are a little grumpy at the fact they weren't also given roles in this book. Delphine and the Silver Needle is her debut novel.
