ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Like her heroine, Veronica Wolff braved an all-girls school, traveled to far away places, and studied lots of languages. She was, however, never trained as an assassin (or so she claims). In real life, she’s most often found on a beach or in the mountains in Northern California, but you can always find her online at veronicawolff.com.
