Jessica Speart is an investigative journalist whose focus is on wildlife law enforcement, endangered species issues, and the environment. Speart created her sleuth, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Agent Rachel Porter, after years of investigating wildlife and drug trafficking crimes for publications such as the New York Sunday Times Magazine, Omni, Travel & Leisure, Audubon, National Wildlife, Mother Jones, Wildlife Conservation, Earth Journal and Animals Magazine, among others. When she began to find the characters she covered stranger than fiction, she decided to turn her pen toward mysteries. Prior to writing, Jessica worked as an actress in NYC where she appeared off-Broadway as well as in commercials and soap operas. Gator Aide, Tortoise Soup and Bird Brained are the first three books in the Rachel Porter series. Border Prey, the fourth Rachel Porter mystery, will be published in June 2000.
