About the Author

When Helen was close to retirement, she made the decision to give writing a go. At first, she tried romance but couldn't get off the starting block, so crime it was.

For her first novel, she spent weeks deciding on the main character's name and once she had it, she was off and running, writing the first novel, then a sequel then a third in quick succession. From the off Helen loved writing, making up stories and getting to know the characters who spring from her imagination. She feels like she actually knows these people, what makes then tick and what drives them.

Helen is many years retired and although her family tell her to put her feet up, she can't give up writing. Ever since that first book it's become an obsession.
