Cath's books get better and better. Loved this - a story to get your teeth into with plenty of thrills, a fab setting, and best of all, characters I really cared about.

Can't wait! Lots of outstanding @the_CWA authors. Great it's in Liverpool.

Some favourite authors here.

My friend and I have got our tickets! Amazing author line-up; can't wait.

Follow the dream! Dea Parkin Gladstone's Library James Wills

My friend Dave's fantasy novel on offer! I've had no editorial input on this, but read a very early draft and thought it huge fun. Characters to root for.

We're still buzzing from all the fun at the Byte Shorts Showcase Wednesday evening. Congrats again to all our finalists: Nic Mira Dea Parkin Laurence Kershook, and Helen Bell. And to our winner SarahBeard who took home £100 in prize money!

Martin Edwards, talking here about his latest non-fic book The Life of Crime, is surely speaking for every writer. And editor...

I have just lost my wedding ring - in Buxton Derbyshire - just after giving a talk this afternoon - dropped I think on St John’s rd - if anyone finds it I would be so grateful - it is an old gold ring with a cross on the face. V embarrassed + grateful for RTs.

Thank you! Some cracking stories from wonderful authors The Crime Writers’ Association. My other favourites were by Chrissie Poulson, Chris Simms, L C Tyler, Andrew Taylor and Cath Staincliffe

For crime-fiction history aficionados, the magnum opus you've been waiting for. And a third off! (Still as heavy though.)

Really hope Alan Garner wins the The Booker Prizes. The books of his that I read as a child then a teenager had a huge impact on me. I know all the other writers are amazing, but personally, in my gut... please let it be Alan.

Sarah-Clare Conlon is always worth listening to. And a live event at Lancaster Castle courtroom! Fabulous.

Good news from Sarah-Clare! A super writer and a lovely person, so well worth checking out.

Thrilled to be quoted by the prestigious W&AYB from an article they commissioned from me for the 2024 edition. So busy editing and working The Crime Writers’ Association I only just spotted it!

Still 99p on Kindle (UK). No1 (in certain categories!) Here's the link. tinyurl.com/mr26c473 Thank you and good evening from snowy Scotland. #thesecondsightofzacharycloudesley Transworld Books Doubleday Books Sara Roberts David Henry Headley

Absolutely fabulous book; I loved it. The cover is gorgeous, but it isn't the best bit!

Fab author speaking in Manchester for those looking for an erudite yet entertaining evening at the Portico.

Wow, the Jeffrey Flint books are reissued! Fab ebook box set at £1.99 for all five. If you're into archaeology and crime, and quite like a bit of 90s nostalgia too, they're the perfect read.
