JA Konrath

About me:

I write thriller novels about a Chicago cop named Jack Daniels.

The first in the series is called WHISKEY SOUR.

The second in the series is called BLOODY MARY.

The third in the series is called RUSTY NAIL.

The fourth in the series is called DIRTY MARTINI.

The fifth in the series is FUZZY NAVEL, and it's currently available in a reasonably priced hardcover edition.

I also have a short story download available on Amazon.com for only 49 cents called A FOUR PACK OF JACK and another called A SIX PACK OF CRIME.


Buy my books. Please. I love this job. They're available as hardcovers, paperbacks, audiobooks, and ebook downloads. And they're really good. I promise.

Jack Daniels chases serial killers. Really creepy ones. The books are scary enough to make you lock all your doors and turn on every light in your room. They are a lot like James Patterson, Patricia Cornwell, Kathy Reichs, Stephen King, Dean Koontz, or Silence of the Lambs and Hannibal Lecter. My villains make Lecter look like a Boy Scout.

But the books are also laugh aloud funny, similar to Dave Barry, Janet Evanovich, Christopher Moore, and Carl Hiaasen. If you drink milk while reading, the milk will come out of your nose. If that's something you enjoy, rush right out and buy some of my books, and a gallon of moo joice, and spend an entire week squirting your brains out.

Plus, if you buy my books, we'll be Best Friends Forever.

Don't you want to be BFF with a bestselling author? Sure you do! Stop playing around on the Internet and go read a book. If you do, I'll love you for all eternity. If you don't, I'll start to cry. Please don't make me cry.

I'll tell you what... how about you try four of my books for free?

Click on any of the above book covers to learn how to download free copies.

Yes, I said free! Does Stephen King give you free books? How about James Patterson or Patricia Cornwell? And they can afford it, too. But they just don't love you like I do.

Speaking of love, I recently edited an anthology called THESE GUNS FOR HIRE. It's a collection of hitman stories from the top thriller writers in the business, including David Morrell, Max Allan Collins, Jeff Abbott, PJ Parrish, Ken Bruen, Reed Farrell Coleman, Ed Gorman, MJ Rose, Victor Gischler, Sean Doolittle, Jeremiah Healy, and many others. Get it. You'll love it.

Also, please check out my pics and my really stupid video. It's on the gory side, but pretty amusing.
