About
Monica Chase Headshot, A black & white photo of the author

Speculative thrillers. One inch from reality.

Monica Chase writes fiction that doesn’t flinch—speculative thrillers forged at the fault lines of science, control, and consequence. Her stories live just a breath from now, where innovation outruns oversight and the wrong people hold the keys.

Often compared to Michael Crichton and Blake Crouch, Monica's work drills into emerging tech, genetic manipulation, and rising AI, exposing the cracks in systems we’re told to trust. Expect conspiracies with teeth, characters who won’t back down, and choices that leave a mark.

She’s the author of The Helix Chronicles, a speculative thriller series where gene edits go rogue, secrets stay buried just long enough, and power rewrites the rules from inside the system.

Raised in Memphis with Gen X grit, Monica grew up questioning authority and now writes stories that do the same. Her background in criminal justice and corporate life gave her a front-row seat to how power plays out—and plenty of fuel for her fiction.

Her own plot twist? In her twenties, Monica donated her eggs anonymously. Decades later, a DNA test revealed a daughter she never knew she had. She also has an adult son. Now they’re found family, bonded by biology and group chat chaos. Turns out, real life writes the wildest twists.

She lives in Washington, D.C. with her husband, an opinionated rescue dog, and a brain that never stops asking what if.
