Brian Gallagher’s first novel was the award-winning historical conspiracy thriller, Vatican Protocol. Gallagher's novel has been sold in more than twenty-five countries and is available in print, Kindle and as an audio book.

His latest novels, Serial K, Serial K Returns and Real Monsters represent a departure from the religious conspiracy theme of the Vatican Protocol. Serial K, Serial K Returns and Real Monsters are psychological thrillers that delve into the mind of a serial killer. This trilogy features recurring characters on an evolving journey. Serial K and Serial K Returns are both award winning thrillers with Serial K Returns named as 2017's top thriller by Readers Choice Awards. Real Monsters was released in late 2018.

The son of parents who met in art school, Gallagher discovered Ian Fleming's James Bond in high school. He was later fascinated by Robert Ludlum's stories of conspiracies between religious factions, governments and clandestine groups and is a strong influence on his writing today.

He is a graduate of Milton College, where he studied history, political science and religion. Gallagher's long career as a software executive led to extensive and frequent travel throughout Europe. The combination of his education and European travel created the foundation for his historical and psychological thrillers

Gallagher's style encompasses the following:

*Thorough research of his subject matter leading to a historically accurate narrative

* Expose little known facts that will shock the reader

* Include rumor, legend, superstition and purported facts into a plausible story line

*Provide factual detail for hotels, locations and as granular as restaurant menus

*Unmask institutional and governmental hypocrisy when appropriate

*Create multiple plot lines that builds suspense and allows for a fast-paced tale

*Leave the readers questioning if the story could be true

*Provide an outlet for social commentary

Gallagher released both Serial K and Serial K Returns in the first quarter of 2017 and Real Monsters in late 2018. Serial K Returns was named “Thriller of the Year” by Reader’s Choice International Awards in 2017.
