Caroline Mitchell
Global Amazon #1 and USA Today bestselling thriller author, Caroline originates from Ireland and lives with her family on the coast of Essex. A former police detective, she has worked in CID and specialised in roles dealing with vulnerable victims, high-risk victims of domestic abuse, and serious sexual offences. Published by Thomas & Mercer, she now writes full-time. She has sold over a million copies of her award winning books and her work has been translated into several different languages worldwide. Her latest crime series, Truth And Lies, has been recently optioned for TV.
“Witness was dark yet compelling domestic drama that had me hooked straight off. Fear and dread were layered throughout, and the ending had me breathless. I devoured every page.”
-Mel Sherratt
“Silent Victim is face-paced, twisty, and chilled me to the bone…I loved every minute of it!”
-Robert Bryndza
“The writer’s conflicted heroine and twisted villain are superb characters!”
-The Sunday Express Magazine
“The DC Knight series is a completely new take on police procedurals. The daily grind of being a police officer is skilfully interwoven with her chilling beyond the grave experiences. I thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to reading more.”
-Lisa Cutts
“It’s no secret that I love anything this lady writes. This book was thrilling, tense, exciting, dark and twisted in the best possible way”
-Angela Marsons
“In Don’t Turn Around Caroline Mitchell has created a compelling and terrifying story by merging together the recognisable tension and fear you might expect of a well-written thriller with the horror of paranormal threats that are beyond our comprehension.”
-Rachel Abbott
“I highly recommend this extraordinary story.”
-Uri Geller
“With her police officer experience, Caroline Mitchell is a thriller writer who knows how to deliver on plot, character and more importantly, emotion in any book she writes.”
-My Weekly Magazine
