She has now sold over a million copies of this series alone.

The author has also written a new series of books, featuring her latest fictional creations, Dr Clement Ryder and WPC Trudy Loveday, set in 1960’s Oxford. HQ Digital have so far published 7 of these, and the 8th is due to be published soon.

Her ebooks can be found on Amazon/Kindle, Overdrive and BorrowBox (but are nearly all available also as paperbacks on order).

Murder by Candlelight, her new series set in the 1920’s has received very good reviews, and is CWA’s ‘Read of the Month’ for January 2024. Murder by Candlelight is the first in a new series of mysteries set in the 1920’s, evoking the ‘Golden Age’ of crime fiction/ Featuring two amateur sleuths, the requisite number of suspects, clues and red herrings galore, these humorous tales incorporate the best traditions of locked-room and country-house whodunits.
