Below is a list of my crime novels and those of Harriet Hudson. Some that are no longer available from the original publishers can often be sourced through www.amazon.co.uk or through other formats, large print, audio, and increasingly ebook format.
Classic in the Clouds
Crime in the fast lane, starring Jack Colby, car detective
When Jack Colby hears the voice of his former wife Eva on the phone he fears the worst – and he is right to do so. The body of her husband, Mexican band leader Carlos, has been found on the towpath of the River Medway and Eva becomes the chief suspect.
Car detective Jack goes into action – although he is hindered by a second case, as the beguilingly beautiful twenty-year-old Daisy is determined that his efforts should be devoted to finding her stolen Morris Minor classic known as Melody.

Murder in Abbot’s Folly
Amy Myers
Curiosity about a murder that took place in an eighteenth-century folly draws father and daughter team Peter and Georgia Marsh to attend a summer gala in honour of Jane Austen at Stourdens, a fast decaying Georgian mansion in Kent. But instead of enjoying a literary day out, they are thrust into a tense situation rapidly approaching boiling point. In the search for the truth about the earlier murder, Georgia is pitchforked into danger as it once again strikes at Stourdens.
‘An enjoyable read: historical interest, multiple suspects and a pair of likable sleuths.’ – Kirkus Reviews

Tom Wasp and the Newgate Knocker
Amy Myers
When Victorian chimney sweep Tom Wasp visits Newgate prison on the day before the execution of his friend Eliza Hogg in January 1863, she gives him a memento – a pawn ticket. All it redeems seems to be a sailor doll. Its contents, however, set Tom not only in the midst of the two most notorious gangs in East London, but at the heart of a tense international political situation. What Tom cares about most, though, is who killed the housemaid found dead in the park on a cold January morning.
‘A winning historical series with an engaging protagonist’ – Library Journal Starred Review.

Tomorrow’s Garden
Harriet Hudson
Ebook Kindle
Anna Fontenay returns to fulfil the last wishes of her husband by restoring the rose gardens around the ruins of Fontenay Castle. She reckons without the determination of two men: Hugo Brooks who rents the house built to replace the old castle, and Joss Foxley, the enigmatic gardener. When a skeleton is unearthed, Anna is thrown back into an age-old feud that still rages.
The Man Who Came Back
Harriet Hudson
When Tom Burdock turns up on Emma Cardale’s doorstep a nightmare scenario opens up before her, as he was the husband of her best friend Laura and is still suspected of having murdered his wife seven years earlier.
Emma is torn between Jack Scarlet with whom she lives so happily and what she is hearing from Tom. Which of them can she trust?
