Mary Desch is a former psychiatrist who lives in Portland, Oregon, USA and writes psychological thriller stories. She's a member of several groups and subgroups within Sisters in Crime and the Willamette Writer's community. Her childhood attraction to the Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine grew into a college love for detective fiction. Not surprisingly, she leaned toward the psychological. Before age thirty, she'd entered private psychiatric practice which allowed an intimate view of the human experience through an abundance of stories.
Mary's medical work primed her to create relatable fictional characters and situations of psychological and physical danger. These experiences have informed her writing; crafting psychological thrillers was a natural fit. Mary's debut novel, TANGLED DARKNESS, was added to the 2023 Chanticleer Clue Awards short list and will be published in July 2025 by Rowan Prose Publishing.
When not writing, Mary's interests include hiking, long dog walks with her wife and their rascal mini schnauzer, golf, Portland food carts, and the WNBA.

In a twisted web of lies, she's either the spider or the fly.
When a psychiatric clinic assistant turns up dead, Dr. Leslie Schoen finds herself a suspect in the case—and facing allegations which could destroy her career.
As Detective Davis works the investigation, Leslie launches her own inquiries. She soon uncovers deception and illegal schemes involving stolen prescription opioids at her clinic. It seems everyone around her is hiding something, and as she gets closer to the truth, the threats against her escalate. She struggles with keeping dangerous information from her pregnant wife, Izzy, and knows she needs to confront traumatic demons from her own past. But as she delves deeper into a web of lies, one thing becomes clear: someone will do anything to keep their criminal plans in the shadows.
With her family and even her life on the line, Leslie must outwit those who want her silenced before it's too late. No one's motives are what they seem, and the killer may be closer than anyone thinks.
Fans of Freida McFadden, Lucinda Berry, and Patricia Cornwell will enjoy "Tangled Darkness" by MM Desch.
