Mary Grand

I was born in Cardiff and have retained a deep love for my Welsh roots. I worked as a nursery teacher in London, and then taught Deaf children in Croydon and Hastings . For nearly thirty years now I have been lucky enough to live on the beautiful Isle of Wight. My writing career started with self-publishing three novels, Free to Be Tegan' , 'Hidden Chapters' and 'Behind the Smile' alongside two free anthologies of short stories 'Catching the Light' and 'Making Changes'. In 2020 I was very excited to start working with the amazing Boldwood Books who published my first murder mystery, ‘The House Party.' This is set on the Isle of Wight, and as with all their books is available worldwide in print, eBook and audiobook. This book was followed by two more island murder mysteries, 'The Island' and 'Good Neighbours.' In March 2023 Boldwood Books published the first in my new series featuring amateur detective Susan Flynn and her partner Alice called 'Death at Castle Cove.' These are murder mysteries, classic whodunnits. They are set in the present day but are inspired by many years of reading Agatha Christie!
