Misty Mount is the author of The Shadow Girl, The Nanny Song, and The Keeper (The Underground Defenders). Her novels combine mystery, emotional depth, and compelling family drama, often exploring the bonds that hold people together in times of crisis. The Nanny Song and The Keeper have both earned strong reader acclaim for their suspenseful plots and poignant themes. When she isn’t writing, Mount crafts stories that invite readers to uncover secrets, confront hidden truths, and step into the lives of unforgettable characters navigating love, loss, and redemption.

First published at the age of thirteen, Misty has been crafting stories that slip between the shadows of imagination and reality ever since. A lifelong bookworm, she began writing as a child to dream up new endings for stories that didn’t go the way she wished. Her young adult novels weave mystery and urban fantasy with resonant explorations of anxiety and mental illness, creating darkly emotional worlds where hope and resilience still fight to break through. Born and raised in the heartland of the United States, Misty now spends much of her time in the United Kingdom, drawing on both places for inspiration.
