Aloha, I'm Ty Hutchinson.

I write twisted popcorn thrillers wrapped in high-concept “what if” nightmares—where the stakes are sharp, the choices are impossible, and the outcomes unthinkable.

My stories pull inspiration from years spent living everywhere and nowhere. Since 2013, I’ve been traveling the world full-time, writing from backstreet bars, beach shacks, and every roadside food stall in between. I’m drawn to strange things and peculiar people—almost always leading to one question: what if?

Most of my stories begin with something familiar: a neighborhood, a family, a friendship, a school. Then I start digging. Because beneath ordinary life, there’s usually a secret, a lie, or a hidden truth waiting to be uncovered.

Sometimes it’s an FBI agent who finds her twin locked in a suitcase. Sometimes it’s a sushi chef forced into a culinary deathmatch. Sometimes it’s an assassin searching for the daughter she thought she'd lost.

One thing's always true: it never ends the way you think.
