Consider this your official introduction to someone who officially doesn't exist—at least not during business hours. Marina Zuryck is a pseudonym. The person behind the pen is a federal government employee and former U.S. Marine who wishes to remain anonymous. I write military romances where the conspiracy is real, the cast will wreck you, and the slow burn is the whole point. I also write in a totally different genre: cozy mysteries for young adults, set against the backdrop of the National Museum of the Marine Corps.
