Crime-writing duo, career det. Consultant BAFTA winning dramas inc #HappyValley Voted #8 Best Crime & Thriller Authors of all time @WHS Rep’d by @DavidHHeadley
West Yorks/Isle of Wight
Joined May 2009
Happy Valley started with a conversation. We were asked to help make it feel real. The name came from a phrase we knew well. That’s Bob’s real office on screen. That’s Carol’s old team room. It’s in our bones - and our books. 📚 https://t.co/Z0HiAGkUsa

We stand with our incredible booksellers 💛 No one should face intimidation for doing the work they love. Booksellers bring stories to life, build communities, and support authors like us every day. Thank you for all you do. #SupportBooksellers #BeKind #BookCommunity
Disturbing but unsurprising findings from the BA. Many of us in bookselling have felt this shift, not just in person but in emails, too. The tone has become harsher, the entitlement real. We can do better than this. https://t.co/TBtVT68ubq

The Birkby Fire (2002) took 8 lives. As SIO, I was supported by an outstanding team. Their dedication, and the Chishti family’s dignity, ensured justice. Murder: Point of Contact #TrueCrime #BirkbyFire #JusticeServed

6 magpies, one morning walk. ‘Six for gold’ - or maybe a reminder that even the smallest clues can hide a story. 📖 #WritersLife #CrimeFiction #LuckyDay

Today’s angel wings (shaped) cloud ❤️ Apparently, according to Google seeing angelic shapes in clouds may be seen as a message from ancestors, spirits, or the universe itself, encouraging balance, harmony, and a spiritual connection. #Sunday #clouds #yorkshire

Today, we honour the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty. Their courage and dedication will never be forgotten. Our thoughts are with their families, friends and loved ones on this National Police Memorial Day and beyond. #NPMD25
