Over the years, Brian Freeman wrote over 20 books, most in what he calls the psychological suspense genre, where he focuses on psychological issues in his novels. After publication, it was so successful right out of the bat that it not only was a finalist for the Edgar Award, but it also won the Macavity Award for Best First Novel. It would become the first in his Jonathan Stride and Serena Dial series. That book would become Immoral, the author’s debut thriller, which was published when Brian Freeman was 41. A colleague liked his manuscript and he passed it on to a literary agent. This move proved to be the ticket for Brian Freeman. Brian was hoping that this job would give him some much-needed connections in the field. He kept writing books, but he couldn’t find an agent to publish his work. He also worked as a communication strategist and a business writer of freelance articles for a Twin Cities business magazine.

After school, he started working for Faegre & Benson, a law firm where he became director of marketing and public relations. He attended Carleton College, from where in 1984 he graduated in English with Magna Cum Laude. He started writing his first novel while he was in high school, and he completed it as he just finished his school. During that class he wrote his first crime mystery about the murder of a chess grandmaster. Brian credits much of his success to his grandmother, who was a major crime fiction reader, and his 8th-grade composition teacher who gave him free rein to write whatever he wanted and let him bypass the actual class material. It was his lifelong goal to become an established writer. As a child, he loved reading books by authors like James Michener, Leon Uris, and Irving Wallace. Brian Freeman was born in 1963, in Chicago, Illinois.
