Kelly Mason

Hi, I love writing mysteries and started with a paranormal series. In the last couple of years I have been writing 1920s mysteries. I love the atmosphere of the time, that has been depicted on our screens and in fiction. Of the fashion, the cars, the parties following the war which gave everyone that 'live for the day' attitude.

I set my books in Somerset close to where I live, although the towns and villages are fictional they are based on real places local to me. They have to be fictional as I change them to fit the story. I do use the real cities though, such as Bristol and Bath Spa. They are places I visit often and it's great to be able to spend time researching what the cities were like 100 years ago.

I hope you enjoy reading my books.

R.L. Graham

R. L. Graham is a husband-and-wife team of historians and writers with a broad range of interests in many periods of history, including the belle époque and the tumultuous years leading up to the First World War and the post-war re-ordering of the world.

They are very much drawn to the shadowy world of crime, espionage and political intrigue. They are particularly fascinated by historical mysteries: things which have happened but have no apparent explanation. Originally from Canada, they moved to a small village in Devon in the year 2000.

Marilyn Livingstone, one half of R. L. Graham, was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer while this book was being written. She passed away in September 2023.

The Michelle Kilpatrick Mystery Series is inspired by her life in the 70s as a commuting college student.

Caron Allan

I was born in Kent, England and then moved all over the South of Britain before spending five years in Brisbane, Australia. I'm now living back in Britain, in Derbyshire, where Jane Austen's Mr Darcy came from. I haven't met him yet, but I cling to the dream. I mainly write mysteries and crime but I sometimes dabble in other genres, to little effect.

Like many writers, I have always wanted to write stories. I can remember announcing this to my mother when I was eight years old. I seem to remember she wasn't overly impressed. Sigh.

I started reading adventure stories and mysteries for children when I was around 7 or 8, and graduated to Agatha Christie and Patricia Wentworth (my fave) when around 9 or 10. I have never looked back.
