Sam Blake has been writing fiction since her husband set sail across the Atlantic for eight weeks and she had an idea for a book. Her debut novel ‘Little Bones’ (Bonnier 2016) was a runaway bestseller.  Across all her books Sam has been an Eason No 1 bestseller for ten weeks, an Irish Times No 1 for six weeks, and has been listed in the Irish top ten for a total of twenty-seven weeks. Both her first novel ‘Little Bones’ , ‘The Dark Room’  and ‘Remember My Name’ were shortlisted for Irish Crime Novel of the Year (2016 & 2021). Sam Blake is represented by Literary Agent Simon Trewin.

Moving away from police procedurals, now writing ‘deliciously twisted’ (Daily Mail) bestselling psychological thrillers, Sam’s focus is on strong female characters and ‘creating genuine page turners with metronomic timing.’ (Sunday Business Post).

Sam is originally from St. Albans in Hertfordshire but has lived at the foot of the Wicklow mountains, for more years than she lived in the UK. Follow her on social @samblakebooks. Visit www.samblakebooks.com and get a free e-book High Pressure when you join her Readers’ Club.
