Best selling author, Jane E James creates chilling reads that appeal to fans of psychological thrillers, mysteries and dark fiction. Jane loves to weave tense and haunting tales that stay in the reader's mind. All her books are standalone novels. Her 2nd novel, The Crying Boy (a compelling suspense thriller inspired by actual events) became an overnight best seller on Amazon, knocking both Stephen King and Dean Koontz off the top suspense spot. Jane started out as a scriptwriter but soon switched back to her love of writing novels and couldn't be happier. A life in the city just wasn't for her. When she isn't writing (or reading) Jane enjoys living 'the good life' in the Rutland countryside, in a small village close to the town of Stamford, Lincolnshire in the UK; known for its quirky tea shops and cobbled streets. An animal lover, who believes 'all life is precious' Jane is a vegetarian trying very hard to become a vegan. Her motto in life is to 'say yes to everything.' Up until recently, Jane always owned dogs but having lost all her 'fur-babies' over the last ten years, is not quite ready to give her heart to another. Although born in Cambridgeshire, she is half Welsh and hopes, one day, to retire to the mountains of South Wales, where she feels closest to her late mother, whose maiden name 'James' is where Jane gets her pen name from. Once there, she plans to adopt and rescue all kinds of animals including donkeys, sheep, chickens and goats. Rebecca, Carrie, The Woman in Black and Wuthering Heights are among some of Jane's favourite reads. Visit her website www.janeejames.com or catch up with her on facebook and twitter.
