Welcome to the home of
The British Heritage Mysteries
The British Heritage Mysteries…
are set in England’s historic properties — from great houses and ancient towers to gardens, grounds, and galleries where the past is carefully preserved.
When murder intrudes on these protected places, a roving museum curator and a detective sergeant uncover secrets buried in the past and the present.
If you like atmospheric, character-driven crime then my new series, the British Heritage Mysteries, is for you.
Book 1, The Gallery of Bones, is out spring 2026!
Introducing Kate Threadgold. A motorbike-loving heritage curator, she’s back in her hometown, restoring the Geological Gallery at Biddulph Grange, a historic English garden.
Kate wasn’t keen to return home. She’s haunted by the hurt she caused when she left. And by the memories of her friend who went missing in the Grange thirty years ago. Still, there’s not long until the Gallery launch and then she’ll be out of there and onto her next placement.
But then the Gallery’s palaeontologist is found murdered.
Introducing DS Ryan Dee. Accused of being a nepo baby by his ogre of a boss, Ryan is quietly ambitious and determined to make his mark. But he has a secret he can’t even admit to himself. And another he can’t admit to his boss – he and Kate were once lovers.
Can Kate and Ryan work together to solve the murder? And stop the murderer striking again as past and present collide?
The Gallery of Rogues is a gripping, character-led mystery perfect for fans of Elly Griffiths, Ann Cleeves and Rachel McLean.
