Jennifer Craig

Jennifer Craig was born in Yorkshire five years before the war. No, not the Crimean war-- world war two. She spent the war years carrying her gasmask around the countryside of Gloucestershire and learned to share, take her turn, and cut up newspaper for toilet paper. The family moved to Leeds where she attended high school and later, trained as a nurse at Leeds General Infirmary. After obtaining her SRN, she trained as a midwife in London. To take her midwifery exams, she had to stay in London for a month and managed to get a job in Pontings as a floating biller. This 9 to 5 job, with an hour for lunch, was the easiest she ever had and all she had to do was ensure disparate articles customers ordered from the newspaper met up in the same pa

Norman Russell

Hello, reader! I hope that all's well with you. I am a graduate of Oxford and London universities, with the degrees of MA and PhD respectively.

After accepting early retirement, I began a new career as an author, and to date I have had twenty novels published. My current publisher is the brilliant Joffe Books, who have just published the first of my Oldminster series of detective novels - more to follow!

Irina Shapiro

To write a novel was a dream of mine since I was a child. Life, my practical nature, and self-doubt got in the way, so it was decades later that an opportunity to write finally presented itself. I honestly didn't think I had what it takes to write a full-length novel, but once I faced the blank screen and my fingers touched the keyboard, everything disappeared except my characters and their surroundings, and suddenly I knew that this was what I was born to do.

Since then, I've written many books and have enjoyed some positive reviews, but sometimes, when I stop to reflect, I'm still amazed that I'm living my dream.

Rachel McLean

My name's Rachel McLean and I write thrillers that make you think.

What does that mean?

In short, I want my stories to make your pulse race and your brain tick.

Do you often get through a thriller at breakneck pace but are left with little sense of what the book was really about? Do you sometimes read literary fiction but just wish something would damn well happen?

My books aim to fill that gap.

Easy enough for me to say, but here are some reviews from people who agree with me:

'a fast paced, character-driven novel which enthralls from the very first page': Sherry, goodreads review of Thicker Than Water.

'..every page I was right there fighting with the lead character trying to do the right thing. I loved it!!': Lindsay, goodreads review of A Hous

Karen Baugh Menuhin

1920's, Cozy crime, Traditional Detectives, Downton Abbey - I love them!
Along with my family, my dog and my cat.
At 60 I decided to write, I don't know why but suddenly the stories came pouring out, along with the characters. Eccentric Uncles, stalwart butlers, idiosyncratic servants, machinating Countesses, Fogg the dog and the hapless Major Heathcliff Lennox.
Suddenly a whole world built itself upon the page and I just followed along.

Rhys Dylan lives on the edge of the Black mountains of Wales with his wife and a dog who doesn't like the rain.

Though he has written books for children and adults under different pen names in other genres, the Black Beacons Murder Mystery series sees him return to crime and his love of Celtic noir and dark humour.

He hopes readers will find a brief escape from a very troubled world inside the stories. He does not expect to get rich as an author, but as someone once famously said, money can't buy you love, but it can get you some great chocolate digestives.
