New York Times and USA Today bestselling and award winning author Allison Brennan has published nine romantic thrillers with Ballantine, plus a novella and short story. Her latest release, PLAYING DEAD, takes place in Sacramento, California where she currently lives with her husband and five children.
RT Book Reviews said, “Brennan’s arrival on the suspense scene has been a tremendous gift.” The reviews have called her books, “haunting,” “mesmerizing,” “pulse-pounding” and “emotionally complex.” “[Brennan] is making a name for herself by producing not only memorable heroes but also unforgettable villains.”
With over three million US books in print and published in eight languages and the UK, Allison is currently working on her new Sacramento FBI series which will be out in 2009 starting with SUDDEN DEATH in April, followed by FATAL SECRETS in June and CUTTING EDGE in August. She’s also launching a supernatural thriller series based on the Seven Deadly Sins in Spring 2010. A member of the Romance Writers of America, International Thriller Writers, and Mystery Writers of America, Allison is currently the president of RWA’s published author chapter (PASIC) and the 2009 ITW Awards Chair. For fun she enjoys wine tasting, swimming, playing video games, and-of course-reading.
