Author Description
Chris Allen is a former paratrooper, with service in the Australian Army - including attachments to the New Zealand Army, the British Parachute Regiment and deployments to Africa, South East Asia and Central America. He retired at the rank of Major.
In addition to his military career: Chris led security operations for a major international aid agency in East Timor during the 1999 emergency. In the wake of the September 11 attacks of 2001, he oversaw the upgrade of Counter Terrorism First Response measures at Sydney Airport. And in 2003 when protestors painted ‘No War’ on the sails of the Sydney Opera House, he was headhunted to take over the protection of the iconic landmark. In 2008 he was appointed Sheriff of New South Wales, one of Australia’s most historic law enforcement appointments.
Today, Chris is a full-time author and lives on the New South Wales south coast with his sons, Morgan and Rhett. You may even see him from time to time cruising up and down the east coast on his treasured Triumph Thunderbird LT!
Chris currently has four novels in his best-selling INTREPID series featuring ALEX MORGAN: DEFENDER, HUNTER, AVENGER and HELLDIVER, which were previously published by Pan Macmillan/Momentum. All four novels are currently available in audio format, published by Wavesound Australia. The INTREPID series has been optioned for film and television.
Chris has recently finished writing INTREPID #5 SHAPESHIFTER, the long awaited return of ALEX MORGAN!
In addition to his INTREPID series, Chris is currently working on an exciting new thriller series featuring former Commando and Australian Secret Intelligence Service veteran BENJAMIN RHETT. In the series, RHETT will be teamed up with former Army Intelligence Officer and current Australian Security Intelligence Organisation agent KAT THOMAS.
The first two novels in the series will be titled EMERALD BEACH and STORM POINT.
Chris is a member of the Australian Crime Writers Association (ACWA) and an Associate Member of Screen Producers Australia (SPA).
