There's no post like book post! Looking forward to diving into The Cygnet Prince, third in the brilliant Tudor Rose series by GJ Williams. Thank you @legendpress.bsky.social for the proof copy.

Lovely chat with the brilliant Kate at @waterstones.bsky.social Cardiff. Signed copies of The Unwanted Dead and Paris Requiem in stock. Eddie's keeping some amazing company on The Best of Crime table!

When a writer whose work you love not only reads two of your books back-to-back but uses words like 'superb', Saturdays really don't get any better!

Coffee with a library in the background. That's Saturday sorted.

March 13th, #NoirAtTheBar St Albans returns to the @madsquirrelbrew! We have another fantastic lineup of authors you won't want to miss! See you there! It's *FREE*, and no tickets are required! #crimefiction #bookevent

Lovely things to find on your morning walk No. 1. Absolutely bowled over to find this Banquet of Beggars poster outside my local indie bookshop, the brilliant and award-winning Griffin Books.

Absolutely thrilled to be part of this amazing lineup for Noir at the Bar in St Albans on 13th March. Books, drinks, friends and loads of fun. See you there!

This morning's walk took me past a house with a full-size skeleton looking out of the living-room window. I had to resist the urge to wave.

You know that thing where you realise you have to add a scene to explain something about a character, so you take the time to write the scene, and then you find you'd already done it five chapters ago. That. Happy Monday.

I have a big ask. My 9yo son is autistic and he’s been raising a betta fish he named Kevin. Yesterday He asked if he could “share a photo of Kevin with the whole world“. I don’t know if this will work, but a dad’s gotta try. Like and share if that’s your thing. Kevin says hi! 🐟👋

Nothing like a walk along a windy cliff for sorting out a plot dilemma.

Calling all book fans in the north west and beyond! Tonight I'm in Romiley, near Stockport chatting with wonderful Chris McDonald at super Serenity Booksellers! There's a handful of tickets left - come and join us! Always a wonderful crowd and atmosphere! 6.30pm start! https://buff.ly/3PKp9xY
