Audrey J. Cole is a USA Today bestselling author who writes fast-paced thrillers from her home in the Pacific Northwest. Before turning to fiction, she spent over a decade as a neonatal intensive care nurse, and that medical expertise runs through much of her work. Her Emerald City series is set in Seattle and blends crime with psychological suspense, while The Final Hunt trilogy moves the action to the Alaskan wilderness.
Cole’s standalone novels range from World War II-era mysteries like Only One Lie to high-stakes suspense stories such as The Pilot’s Daughter, which takes place aboard a hijacked plane over the Pacific Ocean. She has a knack for placing ordinary people in extreme situations and keeping the tension high from the first chapter to the last.
