Andrea Matthews is the pseudonym for Inez Foster, a historian and librarian who loves to read and write and search around for her roots, genealogical speaking. She has a BA in History and an MLS in Library Science and enjoys the research almost as much as she does writing the story. In fact, many of her ideas come to her while doing casual research or digging into her family history. She is the author of the Thunder on the Moor series set on the 16th century Anglo-Scottish Border and the Cross of Ciaran series, where a fifteen hundred-year-old Celt finds himself in the twentieth century.
Inez also writes A South Shore Mystery series under the pen name I. M. Foster. The series is a historical mystery set on Edwardian Long Island.
Inez is a member of the Long Island Romance Writers and the Historical Novel Society.
