About The Author

Israr Ahmad was born in Karachi Pakistan in 1989 and immigrated with his family to the United States a few years later. After reading a novel by Michael Connelly, he fell in love wit the world of crime fiction.

Israr did not take the traditional route and go to a four-year college. Instead, he took part in webinars and workshops, such as DIY MFA with Gabriela Pereira.

After years of unsuccessful attempts to obtain a literary agent, Israr published his first novel, The Runaway, independently. Two years later, the short story collection, Angelo: Year One followed.
