Eileen’s background is not what you’d call typical for a crime writer. She currently lives with her husband of 50+ years in rural Northumberland. She’s lived a varied and happy life, bringing up 2 children, moving around England from sleepy peaceful town to sleepy peaceful town, before upping sticks to move to Greece then Spain for a retirement in the sun. From a young age Eileen was captured by the drama and enjoyment a novel can bring, she remembers reading a James Bond novel to younger children when she was as young as 8, and her passion for a gripping yarn only grew from then. Some might say that a happy, quiet home life could mean a lack of ideas, of experiences. Not so the case for Eileen, her stories are filled with the twists and turns you might expect to hear from a criminal lawyer or a member of the Police, and the tales follow her characters all over the world. You can find her books on Amazon and on her website www.ebamford.com

May I introduce DEREK! It is unfortunate for him to be saddled by a nickname, a nickname that stuck when he was young, and one he’d rather not have. Derek, as a name, is fairly innocuous and is not the one causing the problem… To find out what the nickname is you will find the books here 🙂 Mac’s Website is http://macblack.info/

Suzanne has written an excellent book – under other circumstances, we would have had no hesitation offering her a contract for this book – but fate intervened. In the meantime we are happy to thank Suzanne for sharing her terrible experiences getting her book published by sharing a link to her book.  A provocative and revealing account of Suzanne’s voyage to independence – across continents and through war – personal, fascinating – a great read… http://www.amazon.co.uk/Baghdad-Baby-Suzanne-K-Forster/dp/1846244145
