Teri Hall

Teri Hall’s work includes the YA trilogy The Line, Away, and The Island. Her newest book, Murmurations, was written well prior to the Covid-19 Pandemic, which makes the author wary of possible prophetic powers and cautious about her choice of new projects. Teri has always been drawn to themes of courage, integrity and what love really looks like. She lives in a small community in the Pacific Northwest with some rescue pets, one of whom—Tyrone, so sorely missed—was the inspiration for the Tyrone in Murmurations.
