Author Biography

Living in Lincolnshire, Milly loves its flat, endless landscapes and tries to incorporate these into her novels. She also has a passion for all forms of crime fiction which was why she decided to create her own 'hero' - Mike Malone. Rather than wanting to compete with the masters of the genre, she made the decision that Mike Malone would be more off-beat; she wants her novels to have humour in them. She wants to make readers chuckle rather than scream.
