Carol Gulliford Author
Carol Gulliford is a British writer, whose debut thriller was released in 2024.
The idea for Behind the Lies came to her while walking alone in a quiet, deserted street without her phone, and wondering what would she do if someone started following her and there was nobody to help! With a vivid imagination, she scared herself by the time she returned home and the seed was planted for her very first story.
​
One Final Breath, a quick read novella came next. Twisted characters and not knowing which of your close knit group of friends to trust.
​
Out of the Dark, Carol's newest thriller is a taut, emotional domestic thriller, you won't want to miss!
​
A Price to Pay, a suspense-filled crime thriller was released on 26th June 2026.​
Carol's love affair with thrillers started as soon as she read her first Sidney Sheldon book and hasn't waned since. An avid reader to this day, she loves nothing more than an edge of your seat movie or a satisfying, twisty novel.
​​
Carol lives on the South Coast of England with her long-term partner and son. She loves dogs, watching football, walking by the beach and live music.
​
Her first children's picture book The Popcorn Factory is now available in paperback and hardcover.

Behind the Lies
"A book written with a fantastic and unnerving storyline. The realism of the characters and the plausibility of the plot was beguiling. I hope there is more from the author."
Out of the Dark
"This book was very fast paced and easy to fly through the chapters.
I totally did not expect the ending!"
One Final Breath
"A gripping, suspense-filled mystery that's a quick read. The intricate plot builds tension with every page, leading to a shocking twist that you won’t see coming. A thrilling who-done-it that will leave you thinking long after the last page."
A Price to Pay
"I can easily say this is one of my favorite books that I’ve read in a while. The pacing is lightning quick, the characters are often morally questionable, and the writing is sharp."
