Yes. I thought the same about Ann-Marie MacDonald and there must be others.

Thanks, Elizabeth.

I searched by 'ann' on my bookshelf and came up with a list consisting of mostly crime & fantasy. Surprisingly a lot of Anna & Anne who writes crime.

Would The Mitaines Gang by Loïc Clément and Anne Montel fit ? She is the illustrator working on this graphic novel.
