Roz Southey
Roz Southey is a historian and musician who writes about the north-east of England where she lives and works; her stories have been praised for their strong sense of place. She is the author of a number of short stories and novellas, and of the Charles Patterson Mysteries, historical crime books set in eighteenth-century Newcastle upon Tyne – books that have been described as immersed in the tastes, sights and sounds of the 18th century, alternately thrilling and chilling.
