Audrey Lee

Audrey Lee’s debut novel, The Mechanics of Memory, was nominated for the Edgar® Award for Best First Novel, the Anthony Award for Best First Novel, the Silver Falchion Award for Best Thriller, and the Lefty Award for Best Debut Mystery. The audiobook won the IPPY Gold Medal for Best Mystery/Thriller and will be available in Japan from Shinchosha Press beginning April 2026. Her sophomore suspense thriller, Never to Be Told, will be released this year.

Audrey holds two degrees from UC Berkeley (Go Bears!) and spent over two decades in public education. When she isn’t writing books, she consults with school systems about creating environments for students that are more equitable, culturally responsive, and socially just.

Audrey lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her husband and Maltipoo, Luna. She spends the majority of her free time missing her son, who abandoned her for college. When not doing that, Audrey is compulsively organizing, playing slots, or making miniatures (usually with a dirty martini in hand.)
