Leslie Rule is an artist, photographer, and author. She was born on a dark and stormy night in Seattle, Washington, and has lived in the Northwest most of her life. Her true crime debut, A Tangled Web, released in April 2020, covers a frightening Omaha love triangle murder. A veteran author for over three decades, Rule's other works include two suspense novels and five nonfiction books on the paranormal, including Coast to Coast Ghosts--True Stories of Hauntings Across America. Rule was only seventeen when she started attending murder trials with her mother, author Ann Rule. "It was my job to shoot the killers--not with a gun, but with my camera," says Leslie. Many of her courtroom photographs have appeared in her mother's books. In addition to her bestselling books, Leslie has published dozens of articles in national magazines, including First for Women, Woman's World and Reader's Digest.
