Katie Siegel (she/they) is a former wannabe kid detective who eventually realized that writing mysteries was more fun than trying (and failing) to solve them. Her debut novel, Charlotte Illes Is Not A Detective, was published in June 2023 by Kensington Books. Her second book, Charlotte Illes is Not A Teacher, was published in July 2024. Her third book, Out of the Loop, is scheduled for publication in spring 2026 with Crooked Lane Books.
Katie writes mysteries about former kid detectives and time loops. She’d also love to expand to other genres one day, including romance and, her favorite genre, fantasy.
