...that way, I never run out of steam when I get to the end because I'm always so excited to get there and write it!"

“Just what the psychological thriller market needs to shake things up a bit. And, of course, I’m a little in love with Saeed as I suspect everyone will be.”

About

Carrie Magillen

“At university we were taught to show the important scenes and tell the unimportant ones. So if my main character is going through something important, you’re damn well going through it with her. I never cut to the fireplace. I never hold back.”

Carrie studied creative writing at Webster University in the Netherlands, Wollongong University in Australia, and Winchester University in England. Her first novel, When He’s Not Here, was a No.1 bestseller on Amazon and Audible. Her second novel, Stone the Dead Crows, was a Silver Falchion Finalist for Best Thriller.

She lives in Hampshire with her husband and two very hairy four-legged children.
