Adrian Fogelin is the award-winning author of the novels Crossing Jordan and Anna Casey's Place in the World. She lived in the Florida Keys for fifteen years -- six of them aboard a leaky cruiser called the Ever So Discreet. Docked at a marina very much like the one in My Brother's Hero, the author, her husband, and their young daughter fished off show more the bow of their floating home, snorkeled under it, and awoke one Christmas morning to discover that the ship was going down. With the help of marina neighbors the Ever So was saved, and a merry Christmas was had by all. Now a resident of Tallahassee, Florida, Fogelin has not forgotten the salty, sunny years lived at the water's edge show less
