Osian Garey and Dannel Ortea live together in a colourful flat in Covent Garden. They run a podcast and throw themselves wholeheartedly into Cosplay, video games, and musical theatre. This year, they’re all fired up to attend their annual convention with a group of first responders.

When Osian finds a paramedic friend murdered in the middle of the crowded venue, the police immediately turn their attention to him.

They have one question on their mind.

Is he the first witness on the scene or the killer?

As the mystery unfolds, Osian has to face the trauma of his last job as a paramedic. Somewhere in those memories, a killer waits to exact revenge. They’ll have to prove Osian’s innocence and fight for their own survival when the killer puts them both in their sights.

Book Review: Ghost Light Killer

GLK_KINDLE&BK MOCK UP_SMART_small“This is a modern take on a cozy mystery. It is so good it makes me want to curl up with some tea and cake and lose myself in the pages. Osian and Dannel are both very engaging and funny. This is a low heat story but the love between the two men is evident.“

Book Review: Poisoned Primrose

Poisoned Primrose Cover600

“I really enjoy reading Dahlia Donovan’s cozy mysteries because they remind me of a mash-up of Father Brown, Agatha Christie and Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries. Since I’ve fallen down the MM rabbit hole, I haven’t read MF romance. I was pleased to discover that Motts was written as an asexual, autistic character and this book reads more as a whodunnit than a romance novel. Loved it!”

Where do I find inspiration?

I hate the question. Where do I find inspiration? It’s one of those open-ended questions that causes my mind to go blank. Just…blank. No ideas. Nothing.

So I thought I’d share where I got the initial inspiration for a few of my different books.

– the Blackbird Series: a crazy dream I had the week before NaNoWriMo started.

– After the Scrum: I made the mistake of watching 7 Nation rugby a week before NaNoWriMo one year.

– Royal Marine: Bake Off. Seriously. I binge-watched a few seasons of it, and Akash sprung from that.

– One Last Heist: Ocean’s Eleven.

– Motts: Motts was inspired by two things. One, the idea of someone naming their child after the food they crave while pregnant. Two, the series Rosemary & Thyme.

– My current WIP is inspired by Britain’s Secret Treasures, a show all about the artifacts people find while using metal detectors.

– Cosplay Killer was inspired in part by this:

– Pure Dumb Luck: I saw a news story about someone winning the lottery and sharing it with their best friend.

If you’re an author, where do you find inspiration for your books?
