Alex Stone

Alex Stone is a psychological thriller author based in Dorset, where the beautiful yet dramatic coastline provides the inspiration and setting for her gripping, character-driven novels.

Originally from the West Midlands, Alex left behind her career as an accountant to pursue her lifelong dream of living by the sea and becoming a writer. She’s living proof that perseverance pays off — and that it’s never too late to change your life.

With a deep interest in psychology, Alex explores how past trauma, hidden truths, and complex relationships shape people — for better or worse. Her thrillers are packed with emotional depth, compelling twists, and characters who stay with you long after the final page.

Her upcoming novel, The Missing Boyfriend (out 14th October 2025), is a tense and emotionally layered thriller set in Christchurch, Dorset:

When Olivia reports her boyfriend Callum missing, the police want to know one thing — is he even real?

Alex draws inspiration from authors such as Gillian McAllister, C.L. Taylor, S.E. Lynes and Lisa Jewell — writers who, like her, craft twisty, thought-provoking thrillers with heart.
