His 2016 novel, THE ADVOCATE'S DAUGHTER (St. Martin's Press/Minotaur), was named "best legal thriller of the year" on influential critic Stacy Alesi's annual best books list, and received significant praise. His latest release, THE OUTSIDER (St. Martin's Press, March 21, 2017) has been on "best of the year" lists and received significant praise, including from #1 New York Times bestsellers James Patterson and Lisa Gardner and the Associated Press, which called it a "winning novel." THE OUTSIDER was in development for a television series on NBC.
Anthony is currently working on his next two novels–his first non-legal thrillers–which will be released from St. Martin's Press in 2020 and 2021.
