Oden M Grube

Oden Montgomery Grube grew up in the small town of Smithville, Georgia, where a lifelong love of writing and a fascination with unsolved mysteries took root. Cold cases have always captured her attention — not simply because of the mystery surrounding them, but because behind every unsolved case is a victim, a family, and a story still waiting for answers.

That fascination, combined with her determination to see things through, inspired her first novel, Voice from the Grave. Through the story, Oden hopes to entertain readers while also encouraging them to take an interest in cold cases and the people who have waited years, sometimes decades, for justice and closure.

Oden eventually moved from Georgia to a small town in Oklahoma, where she has owned three successful businesses and made history as the town's first female mayor.

Voice from the Grave is her first published novel — but it will not be her last. Her next book will once again venture into the haunting world of an unsolved cold case, where secrets from the past are still waiting to be uncovered.
