edit data

Bryan Michael writes crime thrillers and domestic thrillers. His debut novel blends the grit of Don Winslow’s storytelling with the page-turning suspense of The Couple Next Door.

Before turning to fiction, he worked as a journalist with bylines in Men’s Journal, VinePair, and Beer Advocate. He spent years traveling the world, covering everything from hole-in-the-wall BBQ joints and dive bars to the global culture of craft beer.

Originally from Ohio, he now lives in North Carolina with his family. When he’s not writing twist-filled thrillers, he’s coaching his son’s go-kart racing team, sipping craft beer, or tending the backyard smoker. He’s obsessed with the mafia, NASCAR, and may or may not be a fan of Nickelback.

I rolled my eyes when my son first suggested we read The Last Kids on Earth. A zombie-monster apocalypse? That felt more like a book he would read on his own than we would read together. I gave in, though, and I’m glad I did. What an outstanding book! ...more
