DM Coffman specializes in clean suspense thrillers (no offensive language, graphic sex or extreme violence). Strange experiences while living in China inspired Coffman's The Net thriller series, and many unusual truths are interwoven into her stories of espionage and international intrigue. DM and her husband lived in the People's Republic of China for four years, teaching China's judges in the World Trade Organization's Judicial Training Program, and students at the prestigious Peking University and South China University of Technology with Brigham Young University's China Teachers Program. Prior to China, DM and her husband worked in Washington, DC. They now enjoy retired life in the Utah Rocky Mountains with family, two rescued dogs, and an old unamiable tabby named Ebeneezer. The award-winning Net thriller series includes The Net Conspiracy, The Hainan Conflict, The Panama Contagion, and The Harbin Connection (coming soon). DM also wrote the Whitney Award nominated thriller The Hainan Incident (an LDS version of Books 1 and 2 in The Net series) published by Covenant Communications, Inc. In non-fiction DM wrote Above the Best: The Remarkable Life of Seeley E. Ralphs (her father), and China Through the Eyes of Her Students—a culture book providing a glimpse at life in China through the uncensored writing journals of her students at Peking University in Beijing and South China University of Technology in Guangzhou. She wrote A Peking University Coursebook on English Exposition Writing published by Peking University Press, and served as an editor and foreign consultant for English educational texts produced by Peking University and China's Ministry of Education. She has a M.Ed. from Brigham Young University and a B.B.A. from National University.
