Shalini Boland is the USA-Today bestselling author of twenty psychological thrillers. With three million copies sold, her titles are published by Amazon Publishing, Audible, Bookouture, and Grand Central Publishing. Shalini lives by the sea in Dorset, England with her family and their increasingly demanding dog, Queen Jess.

Before having children, Boland was signed to Universal Music Publishing as a singer/songwriter, but now spends her days writing (in between re-stocking the fridge and dealing with endless baskets of laundry). She is also the author of two bestselling science fiction and fantasy series.

Her works have been translated into thirteen languages and are known for featuring regular people in terrible situations, complete with shocking twists. Some of her notable books include: The Birthday Party, The Honeymoon, The School Reunion, The Silent Bride, The Daughter-in-Law, A Perfect Stranger, The Family Holiday, and The Couple Upstairs.
