Hello!

I’m New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Michele Bardsley, author of the Broken Heart, Oklahoma paranormal romances, the Violetta Graves ghost mysteries, and the Saint County psychological thrillers.

If you love vampires, werewolves, witches, ghosts, psychics, zombies, demon hunters, ghouls, and banshees, you are in the right place! We are the fiction fiends who adore the romance, paranormal, mystery, and horror genres.

As Michele Freeman, I write about cold cases and unidentified murder victims in Texas on NewsBreak and a wide array of true crime articles about serial killers, unsolved murders, and infamous homicides in the United States for The Crime Wire.

If you’re a fan of the Investigation Discovery channel, Dateline, 20/20, Cold Cases, 48 Hours, and Forensic Files then you’ll like the nonfiction crime stories I post weekly in the Armchair Detectives community and newsletter.

I reside in Texas, which tries to kill us with its upsy-downsy weather every damned day. I’m married to a modern-day Viking. We have two adorable fur babies, a Frenchton named Pepper and an orange tabby named Picasso.
