Diane Janes
Diane Janes grew up in Birmingham, England, where she learned to love reading and first tried her hand at writing. Her first book was published in 2007 and she has averaged a book a year ever since – some crime novels (from dark, psychological thrillers such as Stick or Twist to the cosy, Christie style 1930s mysteries in the Black and Dod series) and some factual investigations into real life British murder mysteries, producing among others the definitive accounts of the Evelyn Foster case (Death at Wolf’s Nick) and the Chevis murder (The Case of the Poisoned Partridge). She has even mingled fact with fiction in her 2018 novel A Stroke of Bad Luck, which offers what is likely to be the real explanation of the Frederick Morton murder. Keep an eye on her author pages, to see what she gets up to next… She has been shortlisted for a Crime Writers Association Dagger on three occasions and awarded a Crime Writers Association Red Herring for services to crime writing.
