Meg Wingerter
Meg (Hart) Wingerter started writing this book right out of college, because pens, notebooks, and library books were about all she could afford for entertainment on intern wages. It took nearly eight years, five jobs, four states, one pandemic, and enough research to create a freshman-level course on early Soviet history, but at the end, she had a novel.
Wingerter lives in the Denver area with her husband, Justin, and infant daughter, Claire. She covers health for The Denver Post, and has been published in The Oklahoman, The Topeka Capital-Journal, The Muskegon Chronicle, and The (Lancaster) Sunday News. She has been recognized for her journalistic writing, and beat Mitch Albom for top columnist in Michigan in 2012. Despite what the trolls may tell you, this is her first work of fiction.
