Iris Johansen

Iris Johansen is a suspense and romance author whose novels bind danger, investigation, and emotional trust to fast-moving plots. Eve introduces forensic sculptor Eve Duncan and gives a direct entry into the character's personal stakes. Chasing the Night draws those stakes into a search shaped by loss and persistence, while Quicksand places the investigator within a threat that tests evidence and loyalty. Dead Aim offers a stand-alone route, where peril and pursuit drive a self-contained story. And Then You Die builds tension around a survivor confronted by forces that want her silenced. No One to Trust puts intimacy under pressure, making uncertainty about another person part of the danger. Across these books, Johansen treats romance as a source of vulnerability and resolve inside suspense, not as decoration. Eve suits a character-led beginning; Dead Aim offers a self-contained alternative.
