It's very exciting to announce that my latest Murder Mystery novel, The Lock, has just been released on Amazon and iBooks, as well as some other platforms. There is also a paperback version.

A Seaside Mourning by John Bainbridge
A Seaside Mourning is a hugely enjoyable and sensitively written work. There were plenty of juicy red herrings, and macabre moments, but as a cosy mystery it retained an elegance along with plenty of fascinating detail.

The sense of being at a loss for what to do was moving: the protagonists are quiet, respectable … Continue reading Reported Missing by Diane Harding
The Pale Horse by Agatha Christie
The Pale Horse has long been one of my favourites. It's wonderfully macabre and atmospheric, and very, very clever. The book even saved someone's life, because a reader recognised the murder mechanism being used on a real person and contacted the police. In another case, an already-completed murder was discovered through the same symptoms. If … Continue reading The Pale Horse by Agatha Christie
