 * Previously published as The Death Beat * 'It had all of the Roaring Twenties drama and atmosphere, not to mention all of the vices, that any Jazz Age fan could wish for. In short, it's the bees knees. The cat's meow' Reader review, 5 stars New York, 1921. Poppy Denby, star reporter for the Daily Globe is ready to set sail for a new adventure across the pond and join her boss for a stint at The New York Times. She can hardly wait for the glitz and glamour of the Big Apple but instead of scouting out scandalous stories for the Entertainment pages, she gets stuck on the Death Beat. Writing obituaries isn't quite the American high life she'd imagined, but when a body is found in a luxury Lexington Avenue penthouse it's not long before our intrepid newshound sniffs out an unmissable scoop . . . When cause of death is marked as 'suspicious, and unexplained' Poppy's reporter senses are already tingling, and then she discovers that the dead man is none other than Prince Hans von Hassler of Liechtenstein. Can Poppy navigate New York's concrete jungle and find the truth before her life is in danger too? Readers absolutely LOVE Murder on Lexington Avenue! 'This is the third book in the Poppy Denby series, and my favourite so far' Reader review, 5 stars 'I love the sparkling narrative pace, the colourful evocation of the era, the accurate description of the fashions of the time, the way the author blends in real people, and above all the delightful and engaging principal characters. Now I move straight on to the next Poppy Denby book!' Reader review, 5 stars 'Entertaining and captivating... It covered some hard-hitting issues which are still relevant in today's society' Reader review, 5 stars 'A lighthearted romp though 1920s New York with some serious points to make which I have no hesitation in recommending as a good read' Reader review, 4 stars

 'Difficult to put down... After whizzing through the book in the space of a weekend, I decided to re-read it more slowly' Reader review, 5 stars Oxford, 1925. Intrepid reporter Poppy Denby is headed to the historic university city of Oxford, where a young female scientist, Dr June Leighton, has been found dead. Though June's death is ruled an accident by the authorities, one of her colleagues, Sophie Blackburn who is an old associate of Poppy's, is convinced June was murdered for threatening to expose a male colleague for plagiarism. However, Sophie's mental health is fragile and doubt is cast on her version of events. Poppy has always been reporter first, sleuth second, and whilst Poppy knows Sophie is still haunted by the death of her fiancé Bert, a former political correspondent for the Daily Globe, something tells Poppy there is a crime to be exposed and a scoop to be had. But as she begins to investigate, another female academic is attacked, and it doesn't take long for Poppy herself to become a target. Can she unmask the killer before another life is taken? Perfect for fans of Verity Bright, Helena Dixon and TE Kinsey! Readers LOVE Murder of an Oxford Scientist! 'A fascinating book... There is so much going on within the pages that it feels like you never really come up for air once you begin. If you love historical mysteries then this really is the series to read' Reader review, 5 stars 'A fantastic sixth addition to the Poppy Denby series ... an exceptional character and I highly recommend this murder mystery series' Reader review, 5 stars 'Finely crafted ... a well paced, intriguing mystery' Reader review, 5 stars 'A great mystery full of twists and turns! ... a five out of five on the enJOYment scale, I highly recommend it!'

 * Previously published as The Cairo Brief * 'I was torn: I wanted to rush on, to find out what happened next, but I didn't want the book to end - I was enjoying it so much!' Reader review, 5 stars England, 1921. Intrepid reporter Poppy Denby is headed to the English countryside to cover an auction of ancient Egyptian treasures, hosted by renowned explorer Sir James Maddox on his beautiful estate - Winterton Hall. Maddox is auctioning priceless artefacts from his travels, including the death mask of Queen Nefertiti, which is alleged to carry a curse... Poppy is not one to believe in superstition but when an unfortunate 'accident' during the clay-pigeon shooting leaves one of the gun boys badly injured and she finds herself chased while walking the gardens, that's enough for Miss Denby to smell a headline! But when Sir James is found dead it's clear there is more at stake than just a byline. Is someone out to reclaim the ancient treasures, by any means necessary? And if so is anyone at Winterton Hall safe? Readers are LOVING Murder at Winterton Hall: '...the characters - very authentic, very believable - and the plot, which is tight, intricate and worked out to a satisfying conclusion. Everything a historical mystery / thriller should be!' Reader review, 5 stars 'I loved every bit of [Murder at Winterton Hall] and finished it in a matter of hours. It was just one of those stories I couldn't seem to put down even when I probably should have been doing other things' Reader review, 5 stars 'Right from the start you are hooked... Poppy's combination of sleuthing skills, determination and empathy make for wonderful reading... and you're desperate to know what is going to happen next' Reader review, 5 stars

 'Historical detective fiction at its best... I had to give myself a couple of days without anything else planned because once I began reading it, I actually couldn't put it down until I'd finished' Reader review, 5 stars Newcastle, 1924. Reporter Poppy Denby is making her way up to Northumberland to celebrate her father's sixtieth birthday, but first, she can't resist stopping for a few days in Newcastle, for a quick hello to her favourite Aunt Dot. The infamous suffragette has temporarily moved up and is hosting world-renowned artist and long-time friend, Agnes Robson who is staging an exhibition at the Laing Art Gallery. It was supposed to be a relaxing and art-filled stop on the way, however, when a local journalist tries to link Agnes to the mysterious death of a young art teacher in Ashington Colliery, twenty-seven years earlier, Poppy is quickly roped in to help. Poppy is determined to clear Agnes's name but the more she digs into this story the more she is convinced the young teacher was murdered by someone else, and that only means one thing: there is still a killer on the loose. Perfect for fans of Verity Bright, Helena Dixon and TE Kinsey!

 * Previously published as The Jazz Files, shortlisted for the CWA Historical Dagger * 'I couldn't stop reading until the end. I would definitely consider the book front page worthy' Reader review, ***** London, 1920. Starry-eyed aspiring reporter Poppy Denby swapped her quiet northern hometown for the Big Smoke to act as companion for her ailing (but ever-sharp) Aunt Dot, a pioneering Suffragette and former West End leading lady. She may only be twenty-two, but Miss Denby knows what she wants and quickly lands a job at the Daily Globe. She expects she's going to have to pull up her stockings and work twice as hard as her male colleagues, but what she is not ready to deal with is... murder. It's only Poppy's first day on Fleet Street when one of the Globe's senior reporters falls to his death from the highest staircase - just moments after receiving a mysterious note. Poppy is tasked with finishing his article involving the mysterious death of a suffragette seven years earlier, about which some powerful people would prefer nothing to be said. As Poppy investigates, she is thrown into a world of hard-drinking newspapermen, flappers and jazz clubs, and learns she must tread very carefully indeed. Luckily, she has her new-found friendship with the terribly dashing Globe photographer Daniel Rokeby who seems terribly eager to lend a helping hand... But first of all, she's got a murder to solve and this might just make the front page... Readers LOVE A Front-Page Murder! 'Fantastic! I couldn't put it down... a fast-paced plot kept me up late into the night. I am going to wait a few days before starting the next one in the series to catch up on missed sleep' Reader review, ***** 'I sat up to 2am in the morning to see what happened, I could not put it down!' Reader review, ***** 'I was thirty pages into this novel when I went back to Amazon and ordered the second book in the series. You know when you've got a Good Book and you're looking forward to finding the next opportunity to sit down and read ? This is one of those' Reader review, ***** 'I couldn't stop reading until the end. I would definitely consider the book front page worthy' Reader review, ***** 'Now this is what I call a page turner!

This story is pure entertainment for anybody who enjoys their mysteries with a generous helping of shenanigans' Reader review, **** 'Has to be one of the best books I've read in ages... I was completely drawn in to the story, kept me hooked' Reader review, ***** 'Kept me awake well past my usual bedtime as I had to know what happened next!' Reader review, *****

Newly promoted intrepid reporter Poppy Denby is tasked with her first big job for the Daily Globe: covering the royal exhibition at the Crystal Palace alongside dashing Globe photographer Daniel Rokeby. The champagne is flowing, the guests look resplendent in their finery, and the jewel in the imperial crown is a glittering Fabergé egg. But before the party is even in full swing, the lights go out and when they finally come on again, the guests are horrified to discover that the famous egg has disappeared. Miss Denby is determined to be the first reporter to get the scoop and find the culprit.
