Here's the blurb When murder hits close to home, Iris must fight to clear her name… Spring, 1924. Reporter Iris Woodmore plans to move to London to avoid a shocking hometown scandal. Longtime enemy Archie Powell has been threatening to reveal her darkest secret – and she’s desperate to flee before he does. But when he’s found murdered after a violent argument with her, there’s no escape.

Each year, Public Lending Rights pays authors a small amount based on library loans of their books. I’m delighted there were nearly 5000 loans of my books (ebooks, audios, hard + paperbacks, large print editions) from July 2023 to June 2024. Support your local library! @boldwoodbooks.bsky.social

It was great fun researching pantomimes in the 1920s for 𝐀 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐩𝐬𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐦𝐚𝐬 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞, in which Winchester Cathedral's charity production of Cinderella proves to be a deadly affair!

Thanks to the Dogmersfield, Winchfield and Crookham Village Horticultural Society for inviting me to talk to their members (about books, not horticulture!). A lovely evening spent discussing the history & Hampshire locations that have inspired my books. The Society's first event was held in 1952 🌸🥦🥕
