About
Meet the Author
Elizabeth King is a lawyer by training, a storyteller by passion, and a truth-seeker by instinct. With a mind honed by logic and a heart tethered to wonder, she crafts fiction that dances along the knife’s edge of reality and imagination, where the psychological meets the philosophical, and the ordinary is cracked open to reveal the uncanny.
Her work explores the hidden codes behind human behavior, the haunting “what ifs” of existence, and the fragile systems we build to make sense of chaos. Blending high-concept premises with emotional depth, Elizabeth writes the kind of stories that linger long after the final page, asking bold questions and never flinching from uncomfortable truths.
The Writing
Elizabeth’s debut novel, End Date, is a genre-defying psychological thriller that examines a world where a natural discovery predicts the date of your death—and the societal fallout that follows. At once a haunting mystery and a philosophical puzzle, End Date has already begun drawing attention for its thought-provoking premise and unforgettable characters.
Elizabeth’s fiction sits comfortably beside the works of Blake Crouch, John Marrs, and Kazuo Ishiguro—though her voice is undeniably her own. She brings razor-sharp insight, emotional resonance, and a quiet, simmering tension to each page.
The Person Behind the Pen
Originally trained in law, Elizabeth’s path to storytelling wasn’t linear, but it was inevitable. Years of analysing legal systems and human motivations have deepened her obsession with what drives people, what they hide, and what happens when everything they’ve built begins to unravel.
A firm believer in the power of language to rewire our understanding of reality, Elizabeth views fiction not just as an escape but as a revelation. Her characters don’t just survive their stories, they confront the cracks in their worlds and themselves.
When she’s not writing, Elizabeth is usually reading strange books, building intricate storyworlds, daydreaming about alternate realities, or having long existential conversations over tea. She lives at the intersection of intellect and imagination, and she invites her readers to meet her there.
