Waterstones, 6th August 2016

Guess where I will be from 10:30am on 6th August 2016

Guess where I will be from 10:30 am on Saturday, the 6th August. My four legged friend holds the answer - Waterstones - although he is utterly confused because he thinks the notice says Water bones.

Book signing and meet the author event.

I am looking forward to signing my Utterly Crime novels and the 'meet the author' event in Waterstones, featuring all the books from my Utterly Crime Series - set in Suffolk.

Utterly Crime Novels - Set in Suffolk - The Felixstowe Book Festival 2016

I am really excited about the Felixstowe Book Festival later this month. I shall be there, alongside fellow authors Rosy Thornton and Mary Powles, and we shall be talking about our novels and how Suffolk has influenced or lent itself to our different genres and writing styles.  

Set in Suffolk - (Sunday 26th June at 1:30pm.) 

Find out more about us, the festival and 'Set in Suffolk'.

I hitched a flight to take some promotional photos in an attempt to inspire readers to visit Felixstowe and the Book Festival.

This is Alpha Zulu, a Piper Arrow with Attitude.... 

Alpha Zulu coming in to land with... not a lot of Altitude. (I was on board!)

I hope you can understand why I shall be describing how The Utterly Crime Series has been inspired by, and infused with 'Suffolk'.

It was great fun to visit Woodbridge library this week for a book signing / meet the author event with my latest Utterly crime novel, Utterly Knotted. Of course I had some help from my dog with the seasonal book promotion beforehand....

Otto wasn't too sure about the Christmas robin!

Latest Utterly Crime novel released and Live on Amazon

Utterly Knotted is Live on Amazon

This is the fifth novel in the Utterly Crime Series - Suffolk based. Like all the previous books in the series, it stands alone, but is also part of a sequence - because time moves on!

I have enjoyed planning this book and feel, along with Utterly Reclaimed, that Matt's move from carpentry to computing & IT made it more fun to write.

The Plot - Knotweed is ugly - and so is murder in Suffolk. A body is found near a railway line in Needham Market while Nick, a carpentry apprentice gets wasted at a gig miles away in Rattlesden.

Chrissie, Matt and Nick, friends since their Utterly Academy days, follow trails stretching from Bury St Edmunds to Woodbridge and Felixstowe, and discover murky secrets from an abusive past.

Throw into the mix a turkey farm, winery and a French flea market pot and you have the recipe for a perfect murder.

Cover design by Rebecca Moss Guyver.

UTTERLY FUN to be interviewed for CHOICES, the Suffolk Lifestyle Magazine

Utterly Fun - Photos being taken for CHOICES, the Suffolk Lifestyle Magazine. A few steps back, and I'll be in the pond!

When Hayley Charman, Editor of Choices came to my home to interview me in May, I wasn't sure if the thrust of her article would be about lifestyle choices such as crime (crime fiction as in my Utterly crime series) or becoming an author! Rest assured - it was about taking up writing and becoming an author.

It would take up too much space in Hayley's article to list all the bookstores where my books are available, so I shall list them here: 

Waterstones (Bury St Edmunds, Buttermarket branch); Browsers (Woodbridge); Idlers (Hadleigh); Landers (Long Melford); Diss bookshop (Diss); Bridge Farm Barns (Monks Eleigh); Leaping Hare bookshop (Wyken Vineyard); Stowmarket Tourist Information bookshop; The Green Barn (Ringshall).

Amazon (paperback and e-book)

They may also be in your local library - just ask next time you visit your library!

The Utterly Series

More news from the Utterly Series

Chrissie, Nick and Matt were last seen in November 2010. Since Bonfire Night and the novel Utterly Fuelled, they've taken a few quiet months. But of course the words, uneventful life and the names Chrissie, Nick and Matt don't sit well together in the same breath. The next Utterly crime novel picks them up around Easter 2011.

More murder and crime in Suffolk to follow....

This is a shaker style writing box that Chrissie is still working on....
