Informationen zum Autor Alaina Urquhart is the science-loving co-host of the chart-topping show Morbid: A True Crime Podcast . As an autopsy technician by trade, she offers a unique perspective from deep inside the morgue. Alaina hails from Boston, where she lives with her wonderful husband, John, their three amazing daughters, and a ghost Puggle named Bailey. She is about 75 percent coffee, and truly believes she and Agent Clarice Starling could be friends. Before writing her first psychological horror novel, she received degrees in criminal justice, psychology, and biology. When she isn't hosting Morbid , she hosts the Parcast original show Crime Countdown , and a horror movie podcast called Scream! . Her days are usually spent either recording or eviscerating. The way she sees it, when she hangs up her microphone for the day, it's time to let the dead speak. Klappentext 'AMAZING TWISTS.
