Nancy's books have been compared to Mary Higgins Clark and are praised for contributing to the "women-driven mystery field with panache” (Foreword Reviews) as well as for their ”hold-onto-the-bar roller coaster” plots (RT Book Reviews) with “adventures both nightmarish and dreamy” (Kirkus Reviews).
Nancy has been a writer and editor for her entire working career. She coauthored Backroom Politics, a New York Times notable book , with her husband Bill Boyarsky. She has written several textbooks on the justice system as well as written articles for publications such as the Los Angeles Times, Forbes, and McCall’s. She also contributed to political anthologies, including In the Running, about women’s political campaigns,and The Challenge of California by the late Eugene Lee. In addition to her writing career, she was communications director for political affairs for ARCO.
