Murder Most Unladylike has arrived in Spain!

February 28, 2024

Spanish cover

Ten years after Murder Most Unladylike first published in the UK, it’s amazing to see that it’s still arriving in new territories – and the latest addition is one I’m particularly pleased about, Spanish!

El Crimen es Cosa de Damas has just published from Editorial Alma, translated by Andrea Montero Cusset. It’s out now, available in all good bookstores and online, and the sequel is on the way soon!

I’m so thrilled to have Spanish readers introduced to my world and my detectives. It’s always so amazing to see my words travelling further and reaching more people than I ever could. It’s a special kind of writing magic!

By the way, I do get fairly regular questions about translations. I try to keep this website as up to date as possible, so if you want to know which languages a book has been published into, check its page – I put up the translated editions as soon as I get my author copies. If you can’t see your language, it may be on the way, or we may just not have found a publisher for my series in that language yet.

And if you want my books to be published in your language, my very best suggestion is to get in contact with a publisher in your country, that publishes books similar to mine, and suggest they take a look at the series. This is genuinely why my books are published in Norwegian – the woman who became my translator got in touch with a publisher she liked and persuaded them to buy the series and let her translate it!
