Hi, I’m Phil, a former radio and TV reporter/producer in the UK, writing as PN Johnson. I have four published novels, Killer in the Crowd (2022), Run to the Blue (2023) Murder in thre Blue (April 2026), and Killer on the Set (June 4th 2026). As a former TV reporter, my novels, which are adventure mystery thrillers with a love story, and "Hollywood" endings, are written with possible screen adaptations in mind.
Why do I write? I want to entertain, excite and inspire with popular commercial fiction. My protagonists are women who face seemingly insurmountable odds but find themselves stronger than they ever thought possible. I want readers to fear for them, laugh and cry with them. I like Hollywood endings which are life affirming and uplifting, something I think the world really needs right now. Murder in the Blue reached 57 in the Kindle Women's Adventure Fiction chart within two weeks of publication. Thanks for reading. I hope you enjoy my stories.
