Tiffany W. Killoren

Tiffany Killoren is a storyteller. The stories may have come in all shapes and sizes over the years, but in her heart, she simply loved to tell them.

As a magazine writer, she enjoyed diving into complex topics that required her to challenge herself, interviewing experts and educating herself to craft a finished product that she felt fortunate and honored to be a part of.

And, as an author, she shapes her own fictional worlds, creating characters with beautiful flaws that she

Emma Salisbury

Joffe Books Prize 2024 Finalist. I write gritty, crime fiction that focuses on the 'why'dunnit as well as the 'who'. I worked for a housing association supporting socially excluded men and ex-offenders, which provided me with a lot of inspiration. Fans of BBC series Happy Valley should try both my Coupland and Ashcroft detective series for their unflinching realism and pace.

ONE GOOD REASON, the first in my DS Ashcroft series, published by Bloodhound Books is out now!

Born and brought up in Manchester, I moved to Scotland 25 years ago. My inspiration initially came from working for a housing association supporting ex offenders into work.

Most evenings I can be found walking the family dogs on the beach near our home in East Lothian, Scotland

Steve Cornwell

Grew up in Stevenage and now lives with his wife and daughter in Letchworth. Initially attracted to writing in the form of screenplays, a pivot into the world of crime fiction novels has seen that develop into a secondary writing style. Lover of genres where thrills and suspense, without nonsensical filler, allow the characters to come alive and tell their stories.

Always been drawn to the darker side of fiction and movies, and keen to keep striving to achieve the levels set by personal favourites such as Brian Freeman and Chris Carter.

An avid sports fan, whenever given the option, can usually be found on the golf course, spending time with family and attending country music gigs.
