A.R. Torre

A.R. Torre is the suspense pen name of Alessandra Torre, writing psychological thrillers and erotic suspense about obsession, deception, and violence. She is best known for The Girl in 6E and The Good Lie. A New York Times, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal bestselling author, her books have been translated into eighteen languages.

Biografia e Jornada do Autor

A.R. Torre is the suspense pen name of Alessandra Torre, an American novelist whose path to authorship was not especially planned. She spent part of her youth in Bulloch County, Georgia, graduated from Southeast Bulloch High School, studied hospitality and business administration at Florida State University, and worked in banking and development before fiction became her full-time career. By her own account, she did not grow up expecting to be a novelist; writing began during a period between jobs, when the rise of self-publishing made the profession feel both creatively possible and commercially real.
