Born in England, MAUREEN JENNINGS emigrated to Canada as a teenager. The first Detective Murdoch Mystery was published in 1997. Six more followed, all to enthusiastic reviews. In 2003, Shaftesbury Films adapted three of the novels into movies of the week, and four years later the Murdoch Mysteries TV series was created; it is now shown around the world, including in the UK, the United States (as The Artful Detective), and much of Europe, as well as on Canada’s national broadcast network, CBC TV. The Detective Inspector Tom Tyler series, set in World War II-era England, got off to a spectacular start with 2011’s Season of Darkness, followed by Beware This Boy (2012), No Known Grave (2014), and Dead Ground in Between (2016). Maureen lives in Toronto with her husband and their two dogs, Varley and Murdoch. Visit www.maureenjennings.com.
"Exciting. . . . Full of passion about the seedy abuses of
Victorian society. I couldn't put it down." —Hamilton Spectator
"Mystery lovers can be assured that the culprit is plausible, the
clues fair, the tea strong and the pace brisk." —Globe and Mail
"Jennings immerses her readers in the Toronto of the 1890s. The
smells, sights, and sounds she describes ring as true as if she
were recounting a trip she'd made there last week." —Quill & Quire
