Carla Kovach is a full-time crime and thriller author living in Worcester with her husband, Nigel and Poppy the cat. Her latest novel ‘The People Next Door’ is a page-turning rollercoaster of a psychological thriller that readers are calling ‘pulse-pounding and unpredictable’.
Skylar Warren is a Chicago native. ‘Murder with a side of Shrimp and Grits’ is an unputdownable and addictive cozy mystery full of Southern charm, a gripping whodunnit and a feisty amateur sleuth. It’s perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Ellery Adams and Joanne Fluke
Matt Dunn is the author of numerous novels, including the bestselling The Ex-Boyfriend's Handbook (which was shortlisted for both the RNA Romantic Novel of the Year Award and the Melissa Nathan Award for Comedy Romance). ‘The Armchair Detectives’ is the first in a new series of humorous British cosy crime novels featuring Martin Maxwell: octogenarian, dog lover and amateur sleuth.
