Dana V. Moison Amazon Bestselling Author

About Dana

Dana V. Moison is an Amazon best-selling author known for her gripping detective mysteries featuring bold women sleuths. As an Israeli American, Moison embodies a dynamic blend of cultures – dreaming big with the fearless chutzpah to chase those dreams.

Her frequent visits to her family in New York gave her an insider’s view of the city, which became the backdrop for her novels. Many chapters were penned at one of her favorite writing spots – an underground Starbucks – before she swapped her ballpoint pen for a laptop, a partnership that’s never faltered.

Beyond her success as a novelist, Moison is also a lecturer, editor, and journalist. She holds a bachelor’s degree in psychology with honors and a master’s degree in women & gender studies, graduating with highest distinction from Tel Aviv University. Her academic foundation adds psychological depth and social insight to her thrillers, making them as thought-provoking as they are page-turning.

Moison’s journey has been anything but conventional. She began her academic studies while still in high school, served in the Israeli Defense Forces as a psycho-technical diagnostician, and later lived in a remote ski resort in the French Alps. Her travels have taken her from Europe to the Far East, experiences she chronicled in her column for Ynet – Israel’s leading news site – where she launched her journalism career as one of its youngest columnists. All this, before publishing her debut novel at just 23.

Her unpredictable psychological thriller, Dark Illusion, soared to #1 best seller on Amazon within 24 hours of its release. The follow-up gritty crime novel, The False Mirror, quickly climbed Amazon’s charts, reaching tens of thousands of new readers. Her latest installment, The Eden Code, generated thousands in preorders before its release and earned praise for weaving an enigmatic mystery into an international espionage plot that reflects the complexities of contemporary life in The Middle East.

With over 100,000 readers worldwide, Moison’s novels continue to captivate fans of psychological suspense and unforeseen twists. She is currently working on the fourth book of the Detective Sharon Davis Series, continuing her mission to craft compelling stories led by fierce, unforgettable heroines.

Bloggers' Reviews

"There is a female power dominating this book. That's one of the things I loved most, because there aren't many thrillers with such a strong female presence.

Additionally, unlike other thrillers, I loved not having to wait until the end of the book to find out who the murderer is (sort of), the only thing that needs to be solved is the REASON.

The story was intriguing and the writing was fascinating with lots of cynical humor and graphic descriptions that totally made me feel part of the plot.

While there were a lot of chapters, they were short and almost each one of them ended with a surprising discovery.

The author has a great imagination. to be honest, I'm still a little shocked she created such a crazy character (psychopathic AF!)

"A twisted dark psychological thriller that will leave you breathless.

I put this book up there with Dean Koontz-Intensity.

It is one you do not want to put down.

It is complex, the characters are fully developed and have underlying stories to tell that makes this book magic."

"Wow, talk about a curve ball.

This book has some spins in it that's for sure.

Dark Illusion by Dana V. Moison is a very well written story full of suspense. The prolog itself will have you tilt your head and asking "What the!".

I love how it gives each of the characters room to explore their role. I would have to say that my favorite persona is Sharon, a Detective for NYPD. A good detective follows every lead no matter what or who it is, and some even lose a lot of sleep over a case.

This book is definitely in my favorite's category.

Warning: May cause sleep deprivation if read at night."
