Liz Lawler is a bestselling author known for her gripping psychological thrillers. Her debut novel, "Don’t Wake Up," became an international success, reaching number one on Apple’s charts and securing a spot in the Kindle top 10. Published by Harper in the US and translated into 12 languages, the book established her as a compelling voice in the genre. She has since written five standalone thrillers, including "I’ll Find You," "The Next Wife," "The Silent Mother," and "The Nurse’s Secret," with her latest work, "My Husband’s Lies," set for release in November 2023.
Before turning to writing, Lawler spent two decades as a nurse, later transitioning into roles as a general manager of a five-star hotel and a flight attendant with British Airways. Born in Kent as one of 12 siblings, she discovered writing as a refuge from the emotional and physical demands of her nursing career, often composing stories after night shifts in the emergency department. Her professional background lends authenticity to the medical and psychological themes woven throughout her novels.
Now residing in Bath with her family, Lawler continues to craft suspenseful narratives in any quiet space she can find. Her ability to blend tension with emotional depth has earned her a dedicated readership and critical acclaim.
