ALISSA is a freelance writer with a lifelong passion for crime fiction and comic books. A somewhat newly-minted fan of Mr. Westlake, she's made it her goal to read every book in his extensive bibliography. You can commonly find her work over at the Back Issue! comic book magazine, @inhousearchive on Substack, or @alissadmc on all social media. She lives in London and spends most of her time daydreaming about new projects to work on with her girlfriend & creative partner, who also happens to be her all-time favorite artist.

SHAY is an illustrator and comic artist (as well as inker/letterer/colorist) drawing inspiration from crime fiction and nonfiction alike. She was introduced to Parker through Darwyn Cooke's stylish graphic novel adaptations. You can find her on Bluesky and Etsy. She lives in Indiana like a particular friend of ours, A.J. Grofield, and is deeply in love with her girlfriend & partner everywhere, who also happens to be her all-time favorite writer.
