Angela M. Sanders is a bestselling author of mystery and crime fiction that also calls herself a wife, retired Navy Chief, and mother to one boy.

Earlier on, she went to the University of Phoenix where she studied Business Management. Nonetheless, she believes that she learned more while she was serving in the Navy.

Before she became a bestselling author, she was a syndicated editor and writer specializing in political writing in addition to appearing on several talk shows on BBC Radio.

Still, she always dreamed of becoming a fiction author and eventually left to pursue that dream. Sanders currently sleeps, eats, and breathes some form of books unless she is spending time with family.

On the side, she also works as an editor for several bestselling, award-winning, and USA Today Bestselling authors. Since she absolutely loves writing she can often be found on moonlit nights typing away on her patio.

She published “The Lanvin Murders” her debut novel in 2014 and has never looked back since.

Sanders began writing fiction as a form of an outlet once she left the cesspool of politics and started keeping a journal of sorts. It was then that she met several authors that she first read and was then offered freelance jobs editing their works.

These authors would become her friends that would encourage her to write and finish her works. At the time, she was quite terrified as she believed nobody would want to read her books.
Even though they are for the most part fiction works, there are bits of life experiences and truths about her life in the novels. In fact, several of her works have characters named after her author’s friends and members of her family and friend circle.

For Angela Sanders, writing is something of an escape just like reading is for many people. Writing provides her with peace in her soul and she has said that it warms her heart even if just one person loves her works.

Reading her novels, there are several nuggets of truth that speak to her writing to cleanse her soul.

While she had the support of several author friends and editing experience, she also credits luck for how she came to be a published author.

Angela M. Sanders penned the manuscript for “The Lanvin Murders” in 2012 and after sending a few query letters she finally landed an agent. Over about two years, the agent submitted her manuscript to several publishers all of whom rejected the work.

Frustrated, she cut ties with the agent and decided to go the self-publishing route. She was surprised when the novel went to the top of the New Releases List on Amazon.

Still, Sanders never considered herself an author until her third novel hit number one in Canada on the day she was turning forty.

Even her first two works did not do so badly given that she was new, the fact that the novel was in the top 1000 in the Amazon paid store and Number 1 in the Vampire, Witches list blew her away.
It was then that she felt she had arrived and could call herself an author, even if she was still broke.

“The Lanvin Murders” by Angela M. Sanders is a cute cozy mystery story. The owner of a vintage store gets a coat from former showgirl Marnie who is a very regular customer.

The beautiful girl sells Jo an exquisite Lanvin coat but the following day says she wants it back. It turns out that she sold it with the key to a safe deposit box and probably that is why she wants it back.
However, Marnie does not come to pick up the coat, and things only get interesting when she ends up dead. Her body is found in the shop wearing the coat that has been cut open.

Jo decides to have a memorial and talk to old friends to set everything up. But there are several breakups in the shop and some people are acting very weird.

“Slain in Schiaparelli” by Angela M. Sanders opens with Joanna Hayworth renting a priceless Schiaparelli gown. She procured the gown for a client who will be having a wedding that will be happening at the Oregon Cascades.

The nuptials will be done at a remote lodge in January during the height of winter. Things get interesting when a huge blizzard visits the location cutting off the wedding goers from the outside world.
The lodge turns creepy as it is full of surrealistic items. Even the wedding party is very odd and to some, it is outright obnoxious.

After they have been at the lodge for a night, the bride groom who is a middle-aged rockstar is discovered dead in his room. It is believed that he may have had an allergic ration to something he ate.
Joanna is traumatized by the death just like the priest that was to officiate his wedding. Things get very interesting when they discover a second body making it clear the death of the groom was not an accident.
