Danielle Ramsay

Danielle Ramsay is the Scottish author of ten novels. The latest four are standalone psychological thrillers; the first was The Perfect Husband, followed by My Best Friend's Secret. The third standalone is the psychological suspense, The Other Wife, perfect for Daphne du Maurier's Rebecca fans. The fourth, Taken, is released November 25th and is a tense, psychological thriller: Alice's baby disappears on a passenger ferry, and she has hours before the ferry docks in Spain to find him alive and disprove the authority's suspicions that she has murdered him.

Before writing psychological thrillers, Danielle wrote police procedurals. Her debut, Broken Silence, was chosen for a Northern Writers' Award. It was the first in five DI Jack Brady crime novels set in a small seaside resort in the North East of England. Her sixth police procedural was The Last Cut, a dark thriller with DS Harri Jacobs.

Always a storyteller, it was only after first wanting to be a filmmaker and completing a Degree in Media Production, then changing to an academic career in literature, where she found her place in life and began to write creatively full-time.

Danielle spends her time writing, wild water swimming, running, and beach walks with her Westie. She is also the Patron of the charity SomeOne Cares, a cause close to her heart, which counsels survivors of domestic violence, rape and child abuse.
