Zoom In

/in /by
Mark your calendars for next Tuesday, May 4, at 6:30 pm CT! I’ll be doing a very special Zoom event sponsored by SELCO, which represents libraries throughout southeastern Minnesota.
There’s so much to talk about! A film deal for INFINITE…the Minnesota Book Award for THE DEEP, DEEP SNOW…the return of Jason Bourne this summer…the audiobook release of THE URSULINA…and…the next Jonathan Stride novel!
Here’s the Zoom link to join in:

Coming Soon: Jason Bourne

/in /by
Have you been waiting for the paperback of my first Jason Bourne thriller THE BOURNE EVOLUTION? You won’t have to wait much longer. It’s coming May 25!
Of course, it’s also available right now in hardcover, audio, and e-book.
Kirkus named the book one of their top mysteries and thrillers of 2020 and called it “a treat for fans of the late Robert Ludlum.” This book is a complete re-boot of the Bourne series, so you don’t have to have read any of the earlier books. Dive in!
Plus, reading the first Bourne book will whet your appetite for the return of Jason Bourne this summer in THE BOURNE TREACHERY…in stores July 27!

Something Special

/in , , /by
I love to see this Bookreporter.com review of INFINITE: “It is so rare to have a psychological thriller that not only completely succeeds…but also plays with your heartstrings, leaving behind an incredibly memorable reading experience. INFINITE is something special, and I cannot recommend it highly enough.”
You can find the whole review here. The reviewer, Ray Palen, really captures what I was trying to do with this novel — write a very, very different thriller that has all the twists and turns of my other books, but is an emotional novel of redemption at its core. To me, as Ray says, it’s something special. I hope you come along for the ride!

INFINITE

It’s here…my new stand-alone thriller INFINITE is available now in hardcover, paperback, e-book, and audio!

WHAT EARLY READERS ARE SAYING

“Wow…hands down the best thing you have written and I love your work.”
“I could not put it down! What a great ride”
“Absolutely brilliant”
“Captivating, enchanting, surreal, original, spellbinding, fascinating”

This is the most unusual story I’ve ever told — but also a classic Brian Freeman thriller. It’s full of twists and suspense to keep you turning the pages. It’s also a very human story of redemption, as Dylan Moran tries to reclaim his life from the mistakes of his past.

Today’s Star Tribune checks in with a wonderful review of THE DEEP, DEEP SNOW:
“This book is a delight to read….The Deep, Deep Snow is one to share with friends, to recommend for book clubs or to stash away for a second reading down the road. It’s just that good.”
I’ve got discussion questions available on my website for THE DEEP, DEEP SNOW (and for all my books) to get your book club conversations started!

Wow. Just Wow.

What an amazing honor. My novel THE DEEP, DEEP SNOW was just named a finalist for the Edgar Award for Best Paperback Original. I’ve told readers ever since this book was released that it may be my favorite among all of my novels — so recognition like this is incredibly meaningful to me.

My debut IMMORAL was a finalist for the Edgar for Best First Novel 15 years ago. It’s been an incredible ride all these years. Big, big thanks to the readers, librarians, booksellers, and publishers who have been such supporters of my work from the very beginning.

And congratulations to the wonderful writers who are fellow finalists for this award: Jess Lourey, Alyssa Cole, Jessica Moor, and Khurrum Rahman. Go out there and get their books!

This is the most unusual story I’ve ever told — but also a classic Brian Freeman thriller. I can’t wait to have it in your hands!

A Stride for Christmas

/in /by
“Brian Freeman writes the best kind of psychological procedurals,” says the Star Tribune in its review of FUNERAL FOR A FRIEND this week. “His characters struggle with the moral consequences of the crimes they investigate, and his plots are as twisty and fast-moving as Lake Superior’s undertow.”
Perfect for your holiday reading! Available in hardcover, audio, and e-book.
