Howard K. Pollack is an award-winning author of crime thrillers, psychological suspense novels, and gripping murder mysteries. A Brooklyn Law School graduate and Long Island native, he has practiced law for over 35 years — experience that brings authenticity, legal insight, and psychological depth to his fiction.
His debut novel, Everywhere That Tommy Goes, a psychological murder mystery, won the 2015 Reader’s Favorite Mystery Book of the Year Award and was a finalist for the IndieFab Mystery Book of the Year. His subsequent novels, including Unmasked and the award-winning crime thriller Where The River Runs Red, continue to captivate readers who enjoy dark secrets, complex characters, and tightly woven suspense.

In addition to adult crime fiction, Pollack has written The Fearless Foursome, a coming-of-age adventure novel for young readers, as well as So You Want To Be An Author?, a practical guide for aspiring writers. His upcoming science fiction series, beginning with The Ark of The First Gods, expands his storytelling into speculative fiction while maintaining his signature tension-driven style.

Whether writing psychological thrillers, small-town crime dramas, or character-driven suspense, Pollack’s work explores justice, morality, and the hidden forces that shape human behavior.

Readers who enjoy crime thrillers, legal suspense, and character-focused mysteries will find his novels both compelling and unforgettable.
