Lisa Scottoline is an American author who writes legal thriller novels as well as women’s fiction and mystery. Before becoming a novelist, she worked as a litigator at a major law firm, but left when her daughter was born. From there, she started writing so that she could work out of the house. She is also a columnist for The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Scottoline’s first novel was also the first novel in her Rosato & Associates series, titled Everywhere That Mary Went. Most of her novels are in that series, but she also has several standalone novels. Below is a list of Lisa Scottoline’s books in order of when they were originally published:

    I have been reading Lisa Scottoline’s novels forever. I have always tried to read them in order of the story/publication. I have always purchased my books at Barnes and Noble and I am sure they can tell me which book I need to purchase next.

    I know she has been referred to as the “female John Grisham”. And, yes I do read Grisham’s novels as well, but there is a difference when it is from a woman’s perspective.
