I’ve had some more good news this week: Daisy and Hazel are going to RUSSIA!

Not literally – although a Russian murder mystery would be incredible – but the publisher AST has bought Russian language rights to Murder Most Unladylike and Arsenic for Tea.

This is the ninth foreign territory for my series, and I am so pleased and proud. I love knowing that my books are spreading across the world – it feels like my detectives have friends in each of the countries they’re published in.

Huge thanks to Jenny Bent and Gemma Cooper from the Bent Agency, who are behind this, and thank you to my new publisher AST!
