Reviews / Votes
Munroe is a sensational character and Stevens is a sensational writer * Lee Child * The world may have found its next Lisbeth Salander * Daily Telegraph * One of the best thrillers of the year! * Tess Gerritsen * A globe-trotting thriller. . . . The Informationist is an accessible, crisply told tale * NYTimes.com * Stevens's blazingly brilliant debut introduces a great new action heroine, Vanessa Michael Munroe, who doesn't have to kick over a hornet's nest to get attention, though her feral, take-no-prisoners attitude reflects the fire of Stieg Larsson's Lisbeth Salander....Thriller fans will eagerly await the sequel to this high-octane page-turner. * Publishers Weekly * A heroine every bit as provocative as Stieg Larsson's Lisbeth Salander. * The Dallas Morning News * Part Lisbeth Salander, part Jason Bourne, Munroe comes out swinging hard again. . . . A gritty, suspenseful novel. * Library Journal *More details

Person
Taylor Stevens has a remarkable life story - raised in a religious cult, the Children of God, she was denied basic education, her storytelling quashed by cult leaders, and her writing confiscated and burned. When she finally broke free of the movement, she was determined to write a novel - and she has now written three, The Informationist, The Innocent and The Doll.
The Informationist was an instant bestseller on publication in America. Taylor Stevens has lived in central Africa but now lives in Dallas.
