About the author

Ethan Cross

Ethan Cross was born and raised in a small town in rural Illinois. When a fireman or a policeman would visit his school, most of his classmates' heads would swim with aspirations of growing up and catching bad guys or saving someone from a blazing inferno. When these moments came for Ethan , however, his dreams weren't to someday be a cop or put out fires; he just wanted to write about it.

Now his dream of telling stories on a grand scale has come to fruition with the release of his new thrillers, The Shepherd, The Prophet and The Cage.

Ethan Cross still lives in Illinois with his wife and two daughters.

Praise for The Cage (Exclusive Digital Short Story)

Ethan Cross's THE PROPHET is a terrifying trip into scathing depravity and moral decadence destined to breathe new life into a tired sub-genre. This is the best book of its kind since Thomas Harris retired Hannibal Lecter, a cat-mouse-game extraordinaire that will leave your knuckles white and your stomach churning. Evil has a new name and this is it, but you don't have to be a prophet to see a bestselling future for Ethan Cross.

Jon Land

THE SHEPHERD: A fast paced, all too real thriller with a villain right out of James Patterson and Criminal Minds.

Andrew Gross

THE SHEPHERD: Silence of the Lambs meets The Bourne Identity.

Brian S. Wheeler

THE PROPHET: Memorable storytelling that moves rapid-fire through a complex and gripping plot. Ethan Cross is one of the sharpest emerging writers on the thriller fiction scene today.

Stephen James

THE PROPHET: Cross pushes the boundaries in this sinisterly clever showdown between one shadowy vigilante justice group and three twisted serial killers. The surprises are fast and furious and will leave you breathless to read more.
