Ellen Kirschman

I've been a police psychologist for thirty years. In 2014 I received the California Psychological Association's Award for Distinguished Contribution to Psychology. After publishing three non-fiction books, I wrote two mysteries tackling controversial issues in law enforcement, Burying Ben and The Right Wrong Thing. My protagonist, Dr. Dot Meyerhoff, is a spunky fifty year-old who takes orders from no one, not even her chief, and persists in solving crimes when she should be counseling cops.
