Peter Blauner is an accomplished American author, well-known for his crime fiction novels. Born in 1959, Blauner grew up in New York City and began his writing career as a journalist for New York magazine, where he covered a variety of topics including crime, politics, and bad behavior. It was during this time that he developed an interest in mystery and suspense narratives.
Blauner's debut novel, Slow Motion Riot, was published in 1992 and went on to win the Edgar Allan Poe award for best first novel from Mystery Writers of America. This early success established Blauner as a rising talent in the world of crime fiction. His novels are known for their detailed, character-driven stories, which have attracted a devoted cult following. Blauner's writing is praised for its keen visual style, which draws readers into the action and makes them feel as if they are a part of the narrative.
In addition to his work as a novelist, Blauner has also enjoyed success as a television producer and writer. He has worked on a number of popular shows, including Law & Order: SVU and the CBS series Blue Bloods. His ability to create suspenseful and engaging narratives has made him a valuable asset in the world of television.
Blauner's newest novel, Picture in the Sand, was released in January 2023. This marks a departure from his previous work, as it is his first foray into historical fiction. Despite this new direction, fans of Blauner's writing can expect the same high level of quality and attention to detail that has come to be associated with his name. With his unique blend of suspense, tension, and visual storytelling, Blauner continues to captivate readers and viewers alike.
