Holly Jackson escribe desde muy joven, tanto que acabó su primera y mala novela a los quince años. Vive en Londres y, además de leer y escribir, le gusta jugar videojuegos y ver documentales sobre crímenes reales; así puede fingir que es detective.

Su primera novela, Asesinato para principiantes, fue número uno de The New York Times. A esta le siguieron Muerte en la isla, una precuela que explora los inicios de Pippa como investigadora, así como Desaparición para expertos y Venganza para víctimas, todas publicadas en Crossbooks.

También ha escrito Five Survive, un thriller independiente, y en 2024 publicó The Reappearance of Rachel Price, una historia sobre la misteriosa desaparición y reaparición de una joven. Su próxima novela, Not Quite Dead Yet, se lanzará en 2025.

Holly Jackson has been writing since she was young--so much so that she finished her first (bad) novel at fifteen. She lives in London, and besides reading and writing, she enjoys playing video games and watching true crime documentaries, which lets her pretend she's a detective.

Her first novel, A Good Girl's Guide to Murder, was a #1 New York Times bestseller. It was followed by Kill Joy, a prequel exploring Pippa's early days as an investigator, as well as Good Girl, Bad Blood and As Good as Dead, all published by Crossbooks.

She has also written Five Survive, a standalone thriller, and in 2024, she released The Reappearance of Rachel Price, a gripping mystery about a young woman investigating her mother's shocking disappearance and reappearance. Her upcoming novel, Not Quite Dead Yet, is set to be published in 2025.
