Nicholas Sheridan Stanton, after a thirty-year career in the aerospace industry, is now a writer by choice and spends his time observing and living life as fully as possible. His books include The Migrant, The Gumshoe Diaries, and the KK Undercover Mystery series for children.
KaSandra-TrucHan-Dang (1999–2010), a ten-year-old from San Diego, was the inspiration and coauthor of the KK Undercover Mystery series. Together, she and her stepfather Nicholas created the storyline and assembled the cast while she battled cancer in 2009. She was an amazing and loving little girl, who touched more lives in ten short years than most people do in ten times that amount of time. It is our hope that through these stories kids of all ages will get a glimpse of who she was, and that KaSandra’s vibrant spirit and incredible capacity for love will live on in the hearts and imaginations of those who enjoy them.
