About the Author
Lee Goodman's first novel, "Indefensible," was released in 2014 by Simon & Schuster. The sequel, "Injustice," was released in September 2015, and a third novel in this series is in the works. With an undergraduate degree is in biology, Lee originally wanted to write essays about the natural world, but for years he got distracted by, among other things, collecting sled dogs, commercial fishing, dabbling in fish politics, and ultimately by going to law school. He never intended to write legal mysteries. Having stumbled into this genre, though, he says it's the best use he's found for a law degree--way better than actually practicing.Lee's work has appeared in Orion Magazine and the Iowa Review (where his short story, "A Girl Like Summer," was nominated for the Pushcart Prize in fiction) . Beyond the legal plots of his novels, his writing tends to reflect an interest in in developmental disabilities, mental illness, the rights of criminal defendants, and in the complexity of family dynamics (especially parent-child relationships) .Lee has taught fiction writing at the University of Alaska Anchorage and at Interlochen Academy for the Arts. He holds an MFA from Bennington College and currently lives outside of Anchorage in an off-the-grid cabin. He has two teenaged children, and continues to commercial fish for salmon during the summer.
