ABOUT

Xiomara Rodriguez is the author of The Jane Sparks Trilogy. She served for 20 years in the U.S. Coast Guard, including 10 years as a Special Agent with the Coast Guard Investigative Service, and was the first Hispanic woman to serve as a CGIS Special Agent.

Born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Xiomara moved to the mainland United States at age 27. Her investigative background and lifelong love of mystery fiction inform her interest in stories where complex cases intersect with personal lives.

 

After retiring from the Coast Guard, Xiomara co-founded Tu Casa Latina, a non-profit organization that helps immigrant women, men, and children who are victims of domestic violence, violent crimes, and human trafficking in Northern Nevada. The organization provides immigration help and referrals so that the victims can stay in the USA and build a better life.
