National bestselling author Charles Wilson has become known for edge-of-your-seat tension and fast-paced action in his novels. His first work, "Nightwatcher," a psychological thriller, was called "splendid" by John Grisham and "quite an achievement" by the "Los Angeles Times," Ed Gorman, publisher of "Mystery Scene" magazine says, "Wilson might flat-out be the best plotter of our generation." Wilson's "Direct Descendant" and "Extinct," novels exploring the chilling consequences of so-called scientific advances, have been optioned by Hollywood filmmakers. Other Wilson novels are "Game Plan," "Fertile Ground" and "Embryo"; three suspense novels, "When First We Deceive," "Silent Witness" and "The Cassandra Prophecy"; and coming soon in hardcover, "Deep Sleep"-- a psychological thriller set in a Voodoo-influenced swampy parish in South Louisiana. Charles Wilson currently lives with his wife and three children in Brandon, Mississippi, where he is at work on his next novel. See less
