Take a look at the cover – the artist / designer Rebecca Moss Guyver has recently won a New English Scholarship awarded annually by the New English Arts Club to two emerging artists with the most promising portfolios. Rebecca is currently exhibiting some of her work in Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge.

Rebecca Moss Guyver is the artist who designs the book covers for my Utterly Crime Series.
Wonderful news – she has had her pastel Red Haw Apples (not one of my book covers) selected for the 2017 Pastel Society Exhibition at the Mall Galleries in London from 21st February to the 4th March.
I have always known that she is very talented artist, but isn’t it wonderful that she has had her pastel selected.

My latest crime novel – UTTERLY CRUSHED – has been chosen by Suffolk Libraries as one of their Suffolk Loves… books! Imagine how excited and pleased I was when I dropped by to visit Hadleigh Library last week. Wow – there is was on the Suffolk Loves… selection shelves. I had to pinch myself and take a photo, just to show it was actually happening!
This is the 6th novel in the Utterly Crime series – Suffolk based. Like all the previous books in the series, it stands alone but is also part of a sequence with many of the past characters appearing again.
The plot: As the summer of 2012 draws to a close, the Olympic goodwill sweeping Suffolk can’t last. Murder is in the air. A brooding menace takes hold of a film production near Stowmarket. Lives are put at risk and Nick, the on-set carpenter, is blamed. Chrissie, an old colleague helps out, but she too is struggling with her own responsibilities of taking on a business partnership.
Networks of deceit are uncovered by Matt, a part-time internet people tracer, as a memorabilia scam unfolds. Former students of Utterly Academy come together – one of the four dies. Nick finds himself in the frame again and a murder quickly follows. DI Clive Merry discovers that “crush” can take on a whole new meaning for his witnesses.
The action moves across East Anglia, from Stowmarket and Diss to Aldeburgh and Orford Ness; Bury St Edmunds to Grundisburgh and Ipswich.
Guess where I will be on Saturday 6th August 2016
It is not difficult to guess where I will be from 10:30 am.
Waterstones.
My four legged friend holds the answer, although he
is utterly confused because he thinks the
notice reads Water bones.
I am looking forward to book signing my Utterly Crime Novels and the ‘meet the
author’ event, featuring all the novels in my Utterly Crime Series, set in Suffolk.
See you there!

I am really excited about the Felixstowe Book Festival later this month. I shall be there, alongside fellow authors Rosy Thornton and Mary Powles, and we shall be talking about our novels and how Suffolk has influenced or lent itself to our different genres and writing styles.
Set in Suffolk – (Sunday 26th June at 1:30pm.)
Find out more about us, the festival and ‘Set in Suffolk’.
Felixstowe Book Festival, 2016
I hitched a flight to take some promotional photos in an attempt to inspire readers to visit Felixstowe and the Book Festival.

I hope you can understand why I shall be describing how The Utterly Crime Series has been inspired by, and infused with ‘Suffolk’.
