The person who wrote the exciting thriller is Elly Conway, according to the Penguin Random House website. The first book by Elly Conway has created a lot of excitement. The author's bio can be found on the Penguin Random House website.

"Elly Conway is the author of the debut thriller 'Argylle,' the inspiration for the upcoming film of the same name. She lives somewhere in the United States."

According to Business Insider, Conway supposedly wrote her first novel while waitressing in NYC. Her literary journey gains intrigue because of this.

But there is some mystery about who Elly Conway is. Recent clues suggest she might be a made-up character created by Matthew Vaughn, Guy Ritchie, and Claudia Schiffer. Bryce Dallas Howard stars in the film as Elly Conway herself.

According to Washington Post writer Sophia Nyugen, Elly Conway is probably British thriller writer Tammy Cohen. Conway thanks Robert Massey, a British astronomer, in the acknowledgments for Argylle. Nguyen reportedly contacted Massey, who told her that while he spoke to “a novelist writing a contracted spy thriller for Penguin Random House,” her name wasn’t Elly Conway; it was Tammy Cohen.

The mystery surrounding the author remains unconfirmed, but the film is out in theaters.
