Abigail Keam is an American author based in Kentucky. She graduated with Distinction from the University of Kentucky with a degree in Middle Eastern Civilization, went into private business, and took up beekeeping as a hobby. After a life-threatening asthma attack in 1999 forced her to retire, she became a full-time beekeeper and eventually started writing fiction. She has won 16 honey awards at the Kentucky State Fair, including the Barbara Horn Award for a perfect score.

The protagonist, Josiah “Jo” Reynolds, is a beekeeper in the Bluegrass region who stumbles into murder investigations. She also writes the Mona Moon Mystery series, a set of 1930s mysteries that mix real historical figures and events into the stories. Her other series include the Last Chance Romance books and the Saga of the de Magela Family, a historical fiction series set in medieval Portugal.
