Marja McGraw has past experience in both criminal and civil law enforcement, and she occasionally calls on this experience when writing her mysteries. She also owned an antique store/tea room, has worked in state transportation, and recently worked for a city building department. She’s lived in California, Nevada, Oregon, Alaska and Arizona.

The Sandi Webster Mysteries (female P.I) take place in Los Angeles, California. With her love of dogs, Marja has included a half Golden retriever/half wolf named Bubba in her stories. Because she enjoys being entertained by what she reads, she’s included a little humor, a little romance and, of course, a little murder in each of her stories to entertain others.

Her hobby is photography, and she says that writing as a job is the most fun she’s ever had. She and her husband now live in Arizona, where life is good.

A Well-Kept Family Secret: McGraw unleashes Sandi and Pete and a slightly wacky mother to solve a hundred year old murder. McGraw's conversational style makes it a one-sitting read.

Prudy's Back: Marja McGraw's Sandy Webster is a spunky detective who meets her match in Prudy, an old-time gumshoe.

Marja McGraw is truly a talent to admire. This mystery aroused emotional responses I haven’t experienced in years.

The Bogey Man: Marja McGraw has done it again. Get a cup of coffee, put your feet up, and prepare to be entertained by her cast of characters. As usual, Sandi Webster, private investigator seems to be around whenever Rick Mason, a local homicide detective shows up at a murder scene. On top of that, someone is "dogging" her, as some would say – someone who looks, dresses and talks like the late Humphrey Bogart. Sandi has two mysteries to solve. Who is the "Bogey Man" following her, and who committed the murder at the Halloween Party she and her friends attended with some very interesting Hollywood types – movie stars, agents, models, etc. Add to this, her relationship with her menopausal mother and you have a great read. -- Linda Roberts, Curiosity Kills

Marja McGraw’s Old Murders Never Die brings an atmospheric ghost town to life and tells the story of its inhabitants and a mystery that has long been buried and forgotten. A story of mystery and survival in two centuries, it captures the flavor of the modern west and the very different world of the old west in the later years of the nineteenth century. Ms. McGraw fills her book with vivid descriptions of the strange town and the Arizona countryside that seems to have changed very little in the intervening years. She manages to bring the long-dead townspeople to life and to make us care about them. She never allows the suspense to lag and adds her characteristic touch of humor to the story. Finally, she gives us a moving portrait of a true man of the west. -- Dorothy Bodoin, Author of Another Part of the Forest
