Alan Jacobson is the national bestselling author of the forthcoming thriller, Crush. His critically acclaimed thriller, The 7th Victim, which introduced FBI Profiler Karen Vail, was named to Library Journal's "Best Books of the Year" list for 2008. Alan's years of research with law enforcement, particularly the FBI, influenced him both personally and professionally, and have helped shape the stories he tells and the diverse characters that populate his novels.

Both The 7th Victim and one of Alan's forthcoming thrillers, Hard Target, are currently under development as major feature films with an A-list Hollywood producer.

Alan's prior novels, False Accusations and The Hunted, were bestsellers and, like The 7th Victim, were published in several foreign countries.
