Screenwriter — Author — Composer
Border crime. Genetic fallout. The music underneath.
About
"Some evils do not vanish when exposed. Some weapons cannot be recalled once released."
Chris Gilbreath is a screenwriter, author, and composer based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He is the author of Starr County Line and the Sixteen series, and has written multiple feature and television screenplays across crime, thriller, and dark genre fiction.
He also contributes original musical compositions to film and television — atmospheric, character-driven scores built to serve the story. Whether on the page or in the score, the work is the same: unsparing, precise, and built to last.
Published Works
When hunters are patient, survival becomes temporary.
The past has teeth, and it is learning.
Something fast, brutal, and clever enough to laugh.
When he put him in jail, he unleashed Hell in his town.
