Miranda Rijks is the author of 23 psychological thrillers, many of which have been Amazon bestsellers. She lives in Sussex, England with her Dutch husband and two black Labradors.

Her fast-paced, twisty thrillers are inspired by scary things that have happened to her or places she has visited.

Miranda turned to writing after recovering from Ewing's Sarcoma, a rare bone cancer. She's so grateful that she's now a full-time author and living the dream!

I wrote a novel inspired by my experiences called Don't Call Me Brave and then wrote a couple of psychological thrillers, just because they're the books I most enjoy writing. I got signed by my current publishers and in the past two and a half years, they've published eleven of my psychological thrillers. It's always been my dream to be a full time writer and now that's come true!(less)
Miranda Rijks I ask my characters lots of questions. If they don’t answer me, I walk (or in my case often hobble) the dog.
