Jon Stock, writing under the name J.S.Monroe, is the author of five psychological thrillers, including Find Me, which has been translated into 15 languages. Under his own name, Jon is the author of The Sleep Room, his first non-fiction book, which will be published in the UK by Little, Brown in April 2025 and in America by Abrams in July 2025. The Sleep Room is an exposé of Dr William Sargant, one of the most controversial psychiatrists in post-war Britain. A global expert on brainwashing, he was head of the department of psychology at St Thomas' hospital in London from 1948 to 1972 and had close links to British and American intelligence services. It is currently in development as a TV series. Jon has also written five spy novels, one of which, Dead Spy Running, was optioned by Warner Bros as a feature film. No Place to Hide, his latest J.S.Monroe thriller, was published by Head of Zeus in 2023. “Clever, convincing and wickedly twisty – highly recommended," according to Mick Herron. A standalone, contemporary thriller set in London, Wiltshire and Cornwall, it's a loose retelling of Dr Faustus. "Compelling, relentless and genuinely frightening," says the actor Simon Russell Beale. The Man On Hackpen Hill, the third J.S.Monroe thriller to feature DI Silas Hart (head of Swindon CID) and DS Strover, was published in the UK by Head of Zeus in 2021. "Original and brilliantly plotted, with not so much a twist as a seismic shifting of the ground under your feet ... Amazing." – Rosamund Lupton. “Impeccably researched… An unusual mystery told with exceptional skill” – Daily Mail; “A kind of Wiltshire Da Vinci Code, with crop circles, mathematical equations and shadowy figures from Porton Down. A real page turner written with beguiling wit.” – Tom Bradby. The Other you (2020), the second DI Hart thriller, was published to widespread critical acclaim. "I doubt many other psychological thrillers published this year will be as propulsive and fun" - Daily Telegraph; "A clever mash-up of psychological thriller and police procedural with a dash of sci-fi" - Daily Mail; "You won't be able to turn the pages fast enough" - Heat Magazine; "Brilliantly original and intriguing ... Kept me hooked, enthralled and guessing to the very end" - Peter James. His second J.S.Monroe thriller, Forget My Name (2018), was the first to feature DI Hart. (It was published as The Last Thing She Remembers in the US.) “An absorbing novel full of unexpected twists, topped by a savage climax” – The Times; “A book that will send thrills down your spine, even on the hottest beach” – Sunday Express. Find Me (2017), the first J.S.Monroe thriller, has sold more than 150,000 copies and been translated into 14 languages. “Intricately woven and heart-stoppingly believable, this has bestseller written all over it” – Clare Mackintosh; “The most ingenious thriller you will read his year. I couldn’t put it down” –M.J.Arlidge. "Cunning, captivating and creepy – a beautifully written thriller with well-drawn characters and a twisting, gripping plot that will keep you guessing until the very last page" – JP Delaney. He lives in Wiltshire with his wife, Hilary Stock, a fine art photographer and is vice chair of Marlborough LifFest. J.S.Monroe/Jon Stock is represented by Will Francis at Janklow & Nesbit. Film rights are repped by Emily Hayward-Whitlock at The Artists Partnership.
