A week has already zipped by since the second of the Fish and Chip Shop Detectives novels was published: The Fish and Chip Shop Detectives and The Campervan Murder.
Thank you to everyone for their support and kind words about this book, and it’s predecessor, The Fish and Chip Shop Detectives.
My detective team consists of Maggie and Ryan – along with occasional side kick, and honouree detective – Harry. Together with local police sergeant, David Peters, they have already solved a couple of major crimes. Over the next few weeks I thought we’d take a closer look at each of our fledgling detectives.
Let’s meet Maggie Tyson.
Maggie is 47 years old.
She has worked in Mr Robbins’ chip shop for over a decade.
Single mum to Izzie.
(Izzie is currently working as an outward bound tutor in New Zealand, prior to going to university in Bath.)
Cornish born and bred, Maggie has lived in Mousehole all her life.
A car crash robbed her of her parents while she was taking her A Levels.
She lived with her much loved Grandad from then onwards – becoming his carer until he died.
She inherited her love of puzzles and detective novels and TV shows from her grandad.
Maggie is 5ft 5, a UK size 16, with unruly brown curls. She is comfortable in her own skin.
When we was in her late teens she dated David Peters – they broke up, and a heartbroken David went away to join the police.
David Peters is now a Sergeant – and he’s recently transferred to the police station in Penzance.
Maggie talks to the local seagulls.
Prior to the death of her parent’s she’d intended to go to university, but that was never to be. Now, with the arrival of Ryan, her other dream – of becoming a private detective – might have the chance to come true.
If you like to read Maggie’s first adventures, and see how she met Ryan and friends, then both Fish and Chip Detective novels are available as paperbacks, audiobooks and ebooks.
Happy reading everyone,
