Order of Alex North Books
Alex North, an English crime thriller novelist based in Leeds, draws inspiration from unexpected places—including his own family life. The chilling concept for his breakout novel The Whisper Man emerged from an unsettling moment when his young son mentioned playing with "the boy in the floor," a creepy childhood comment that sparked North's imagination.
Before adopting the Alex North pseudonym, this talented writer published under a different pen name. He launched his career as Alex North in 2019 with The Whisper Man, marking a new chapter in his literary journey. North continues to craft his dark, atmospheric thrillers while living in Leeds with his wife and son—the very child whose innocent words helped birth one of his most compelling stories.
