Karen Lee Killough (born 1942) is an American veterinaryradiographer and writer of science fiction mystery novels under the name Lee Killough. She lives and works in Manhattan, Kansas.
Writing career
Killough began her writing career with short stories. After a conversation at a science fiction convention with Joe Haldeman and James Gunn, she became convinced that the only practical way to continue writing was to write novels. She enjoys the conventions, and has explicitly said that the idea for her novel Deadly Silents was given her as a gift by a fan with whom she had discussed law enforcement at a convention, who felt he would never get a chance to write a novel based on the idea.[1]
