Hello, and welcome to my Amazon author page! I'm the author of the popular GOOD THIEF'S GUIDE TO ... series of cosy mysteries about globetrotting crime writer and thief-for-hire, Charlie Howard. The series has been praised as "crime writing at its best" (Sydney Morning Herald) and a "delightful series" (The Seattle Times). The books in the GOOD THIEF series include: THE GOOD THIEF'S GUIDE TO AMSTERDAM (winner of the Long Barn Books First Novel Award), THE GOOD THIEF'S GUIDE TO PARIS, THE GOOD THIEF'S GUIDE TO VEGAS, THE GOOD THIEF'S GUIDE TO VENICE and THE GOOD THIEF'S GUIDE TO BERLIN. I have also written a festive Good Thief's Guide story called THE GOOD THIEF'S GUIDE TO CHRISTMAS. If you think you'd like to give the Charlie Howard books a try, why not download your FREE copy of THE GOOD THIEF'S GUIDE TO MURDER, a GOOD THIEF novella set during the Cannes film festival?

I'm also the author of the Kindle Single story SCARLETT POINT which, like several of my thrillers, is set on the Isle of Man. Writing under my pen name of C.M. Ewan, I also write nerve-shredding thrillers about ordinary situations gone wrong -- the kind of thing that could happen to any of us! My latest thriller THE INTERVIEW is about a seemingly normal job interview that turns out to be something very different and unexpected. It will be published in February 2022. I'm also the author of A WINDOW BREAKS, a page-turning thriller that asks the question: what would you do if you woke up at 2 a.m. to hear somebody in your home? I was born in Taunton in 1976 and graduated from the University of Nottingham with a degree in American Studies with a minor in Canadian Literature, then later trained as a lawyer. After an eleven-year spell living on the Isle of Man, I now live in Somerset, England with my wife and two children, where I write full time.
