Marshall Karp is a #1 New York Times bestselling author, screenwriter, documentarian, and playwright. He cocreated the NYPD Red series with James Patterson—a blockbuster franchise that has sold millions of copies—and now continues the high-octane thrillers on his own.

His latest novel, Don’t Tell Me How to Die, starts as a poignant family drama and turns—quietly, ruthlessly—into a psychological thriller driven by buried truths and gasp-worthy reveals. Readers are calling it one of the twistiest, most addictive thrillers of the year. (Read the first twelve chapters here.)

The Rabbit Factory, Book 1 in the fan-favorite Lomax and Biggs series, was Marshall’s breakout crime novel. Its mix of suspense, razor-sharp dialogue, and deeply human characters launched a franchise that helped define his voice as a storyteller and earned him a loyal following of thriller fans.
