When some of the top thriller writers in the world came together in Thriller: Stories to Keep You Up All Night, they became a part of one of the most successful short–story anthologies ever published. The highly anticipated Thriller 2: Stories You Just Can't Put Down is even bigger. From Jeffery Deaver's tale of international terrorism to Lisa Jackson's dysfunctional family in the California wine country to Ridley Pearson's horrifying serial killer, this collection has something for everyone. Twenty–three bestselling and hot new authors in the genre have submitted original stories to make up this unforgettable blockbuster.

All contributors to Thriller 2 are members of the International Thriller Writers, Inc. (ITW). Barely five years old, ITW has a roster that reads like a who's who of thriller writing, with seven hundred members worldwide and over two billion books in print. Headed by current co presidents Steve Berry and James Rollins, its board of directors has included such notables as Lee Child, Tess Gerritsen, M. J. Rose, Carla Neggers, Douglas Preston, Gayle Lynds, David Morrell and David Hewson. More information is available on the ITW Web site, InternationalThrillerWriters.com.
