Gina Kirkham

Gina began her career in front-line policing as a single parent at the age of thirty. During her time with Merseyside Police she received several commendations and in 2000 she was awarded Police Officer of the Year.

Her debut novel, the humorous Handcuffs, Truncheon and a Polyester Thong was published in May 2017 by Urbane Publications. July 2018 saw the launch of the second book in the series, Whiskey, Tango, Foxtrot, and the third, Blues, Twos and Baby Shoes was published in October 2019.

In 2021 Gina signed with Bloodhound Books for the cosy crime series ‘Murders At….’ The third book in this series, Murders at the Rookery Grange Retreat was published in November 2023.

Gina is now retired from Policing and lives on the Wirral with her long-suffering husband, two wayward, unruly dogs, the welcome distraction of three grandchildren and a weekly bottle of pink gin.
