Hank Phillippi Ryan

HANK PHILLIPPI RYAN is the USA Today bestselling author of 14 psychological thrillers, winning the most prestigious awards in the genre: five Agathas, five Anthonys, and the coveted Mary Higgins Clark Award. She is also an on-air investigative reporter for Boston's WHDH-TV, with 37 Emmys and dozens more journalism honors. National book critics call her "a superb and gifted storyteller"; she's the only author to win the Agatha in four categories: Best First, Best Novel, Best Short Story, and Best Non-Fiction. Her newest is the page-turning standalone thriller THE HOUSE GUEST–a story of psychological manipulation that explores the dark heart of marriage and friendship—it's GASLIGHT meets THELMA & LOUISE. Bestselling author Lisa Scottoline says, "Ryan is one of my favorite authors and THE HOUSE GUEST shows why," Emmy-winning host Tamron Hall says, "THE HOUSE GUEST kept me on the edge of my seat…" and the Publishers Weekly rave review says, "Ryan is a master of suspense!" and the Library Journal starred review calls it "Binge-worthy."
