About Roxanne Lee
Roxanne Lee writes mystery and thriller novels with heart. A lifelong storyteller, she spent her childhood filling notebooks with short stories and poems before eventually turning that passion into published books.
Raised in Wisconsin and now living in Green Bay with her two children, Roxanne draws inspiration from the quiet moments of everyday life, the complexity of family, and the secrets people carry. Her stories often explore themes of identity, grief, resilience, and the hidden truths that shape us.
Before writing fiction full-time, she ran a popular simple living blog called Verbena, where she wrote about slowing down and finding beauty in ordinary days. That same appreciation for the small, meaningful moments shows up in her novels — even when the stakes are high.
When she’s not writing, you can usually find her with a book in hand, exploring the outdoors, or chasing stories in the places most people overlook.
