Margaret Coel began as a historian, and became widely known as an expert on Arapaho Indians whom she has been studying and writing about for over 25 years. She researches her Arapaho books by going back to her source, the Wind River Reservation, every year, where, she says, she is always learning from her Arapaho friends. Most of her research on priests was done by talking to them and reading about them.

After earning her BA at Marquette University, she did graduate work at the University of Colorado and attended Oxford University. At first she worked as a reporter, but then went on to publish four non-fiction history books, followed by twenty novels in the Father John O'Malley & Vicky Holden series, as well as short stories. 

 

"This is the excellent foppery of the world, that, when we are sick in fortune, often the surfeit of our own behaviour, we make guilty of our disasters the sun, the moon, and the stars; as if we were villains by necessity, fools by heavenly compulsion, knaves, thieves, and treachers by spherical predominance, drunkards, liars, and adulterers by an enforced obedience of planetary influence; and all that we are evil in, by a divine thrusting on: an admirable evasion of whore-master man, to lay his goatish disposition to the charge of a star!"
Shakespeare, King Lear (Edmund) Act I, scene ii
