Alastair Brown is a multi-series, number 1 bestselling crime action thriller author who writes the Joe Beck vigilante justice thriller book series and Axel Briggs crime action thriller book series.
Alastair finds his writing inspiration from reading crime reports, watching true crime documentaries, and consuming other works of crime fiction. Everything he writes is designed to captivate and entertain, and finds no better compliment than seeing his readers comment that once they’ve started reading his books, they just can’t put them down.
When he’s not writing, he’s usually taking scenic nature walks or reading the crime headlines while drinking copious amounts of coffee as he plots his next crime action thriller – whether that’s a Joe Beck story, an Axel Briggs story or something new entirely. He also likes to listen to music and he appreciates some down time, preferably spent kicking back by a crackling fire or sitting outside in the sun.

Start The Joe Beck Series
Read Army Of One – The first book in the Joe Beck series.
Unlicensed outlaw private eye Joe Beck is in McAllen, Texas, for the funeral of an old friend who, he heard, took his own life. While in town, he soon bumps into a beautiful escort named Sapphire, who mistakes him for somebody else. They make plans to spend the night together but soon wind up being taken hostage at gunpoint by a sinister group of men they’ve never seen before.

Meet Axel Briggs
Read Hurricane – The first book in the Axel Briggs series.
A disgraced ex-Marine, he scrapes by in South Florida, living in a camper and moonlighting as a shadowy investigator. Haunted by his past, he’s driven to do the right thing. In ‘Hurricane,’ that means facing the storm, rescuing a missing man and fighting off a cartel.
