About Kevin Barry O’Connor
Storyteller. Adventurer. Seeker of Secrets.

Pull up a chair, pour yourself a drink, and let’s get acquainted.
I’ve spent a lifetime collecting stories—some from my own travels across 91 countries, others from the depths of history, where truth is often stranger than fiction.
I didn’t set out to become a novelist, but when I turned 70, I realized there were too many stories left untold. Now, I bring them to life through page-turning thrillers that blend history, mystery, and adventure.
Whether it’s the lost secrets of The Key to Kells, the high-stakes intrigue of Threshold, or the globetrotting suspense of Shake the Jar, each novel takes you on a journey across time and continents.
But I don’t just tell stories—I live them.
I’d love to meet you.
