Johnny Shaw

An American author with a large focus on crime fiction, the writer Johnny Shaw has become a master of tightly knit and extremely taut thrillers, filled not only with mystery and suspense, but with hard-boiled action as well. Mostly set within and around his home of Calexico beside the Mexican border, he injects elements of social-realism as well, with a keen interest in politics too. With his own magazine, along with an app and a podcast as well, there’s no end to the variety of output from him both as a writer and as the owner of his own mini empire.
