Selma Eichler lives in New York. Until 1994, she worked quite successfully in the advertising business, but always dreamed of a more relaxed occupation. And one day she wrote a detective story about private detective Desiree Shapiro, which unexpectedly became a bestseller. Since then, Eichler has left advertising and has already written 8 books. Like her witty heroine, Selma Eichler loves to cook, shop for sales and wander the noisy and crowded streets of New York in any weather. She also has a dream - to someday write a real culinary detective story.
