Dana KillionGrowing up in Wisconsin, Dana Killion developed a curiosity for the world beyond the confines of small-town life, finding inspiration in the intrepid explorer, Nancy Drew. Dana's thirst for more exhilarating pastures led to a career in the apparel inustry, and eventually, back to her love of story. She created a mystery series based on the long-lived desire to shed light on shadows. The series renders a journey through crime and corruption countered by her protagonist's ability to confront deceit.

Now, Dana presents her first memoir. A story born of a life in turmoil, a situation where the only way through was to write it. And as she wrote, the themes in her personal trauma became clear and loud and screamed for attention because they are the themes of many women, not just women with an addict in her life, but women who have been silent and who have set aside their truth for the benefit of another.
