Order of Charles Martin Books

Charles Martin is an American novelist who gained widespread recognition when his book The Mountain Between Us was adapted into a major film by FOX studios, featuring Kate Winslet and Idris Elba.

Following college graduation, Martin struggled to find employment and eventually joined his brother-in-law's insurance business. His success in the field led to a lucrative offer—a Vice President position with a six-figure income at a Fortune 500 company. However, Martin chose to decline this opportunity, betting instead on his dream of publishing his debut novel, which would become The Dead Don't Dance.
