THE AUTHOR

Biography

Linda Hales — Author

LINDA HALES

Linda Hales writes at the intersection of shadow and story. Her novels pull readers into worlds where every silence is loaded and every door hides a secret. With a masterful command of tension and atmosphere, she crafts suspense that lingers long after the final page.

Drawing from a deep well of literary tradition, Linda has developed a voice that is unmistakably her own: precise, atmospheric, and relentlessly unsettling.

Her work explores the quiet terror of ordinary life disrupted, the psychology of characters under pressure, and the fine line between what we fear and what we desire. Each novel is a carefully constructed trap — and readers walk in willingly.

When she is not writing, Linda can be found in libraries, old bookshops, or spending time with family and her dogs, Bentley and Shelby.

Linda is currently working on the sequel to Stalker's Revenge and hopes to complete it in the Fall of 2026.

"There is no terror in the bang, only in the anticipation of it."

— Alfred Hitchcock
