Starting his career as a determined prosecutor in Salt Lake City, he soon established Utah’s premier criminal defense firm, showcasing his prowess in more than a hundred trials over a decade.One case in particular left an indelible mark on Victor, inspiring his breakthrough bestseller, The Neon Lawyer. Transitioning from the courtroom to the writer’s desk, Methos has since dedicated himself to crafting gripping legal thrillers and mysteries. His exceptional storytelling has earned him the prestigious Harper Lee Prize for The Hallows and an Edgar Award nomination for Best Novel for A Gambler’s Jury. He currently resides in southern Utah.

“This book is a creepy thrill.” —Leslie Zemeckis, Montecito Journal“This gritty thriller is a fantastic but disquieting and scary-to-think-about start to the series. The author’s experience as a lawyer added to the authenticity of the courtroom and other legal aspects of the plot. Gripping scenes and a well-crafted and riveting plot hooked me from the very beginning. It is unsettling at times, but this is balanced with thoughtful moments of Piper with her grandmother and with Sophie as well as some emotional scenes. The book was a page-turner that kept me engaged throughout the storyline.” —Pam Guynn, Mystery and Suspense Magazine“The Silent Watcher by Victor Methos is a real page-turner from page one. Methos weaves a narrative that is both emotionally deep and full of nail-biting suspense…Methos’s writing is witty and charismatic, making it impossible to put down. The Silent Watcher is an electrifying exploration of resilience and courage, a must-read for fans of gripping crime fiction.” —Suspense Magazine“The Silent Watcher is gritty, authentic, and packs a punch. Victor Methos’s own inimitable style is addictive.” ―Robert Dugoni, New York Times bestselling author
