Kristen Chaney Beard writes twisty psychological thrillers and mysteries about women caught in carefully constructed lies—where nothing is quite what it seems and walking away may be the most dangerous choice of all. She is the author of stand-alone psychological thrillers including The Perfect Husband and Assistant for Hire, as well as the Ridge City Series and the Mystery Falls Series. Across genres, her stories explore manipulation, hidden histories, and the moment when a curious question—What’s really going on here?—becomes impossible to ignore. Kristen is known for high-concept setups with intimate stakes, unreliable situations, and layered twists that pull readers deep inside the minds of women navigating power, deception, and survival. She lives in Oregon with her family, dogs, chickens, bees, and a cat who regularly steals her writing chair. Surrounded by stormy winters, old-growth forests, waterfalls, and the rugged Pacific coast, she draws inspiration from the landscapes she hikes, forages, and explores—often weaving Pacific Northwest atmosphere into her mysteries and thrillers. A lifelong storyteller, Kristen loves transforming small-town quirks, quiet secrets, and beautiful places with dark undercurrents into page-turning suspense.
