I wrote a crime book and it’s out this April. Book 1 of the DCI Hope Fenton series is an exploration of privilege and revenge, based around the streets of London. One dead - four more to go. But who’s next? @allisonandbusby.bsky.social
@sarahsteeleauthor.bsky.social tries to explain the intricacies of The Piano Accordion in episode 19 of The Dull Man's Podcast but the AI anti-dullness filter takes over and fades her out!
I’m so looking forward to chatting to the Cleeve Bookshop this Thursday about my new novel. Come along and find out how I persuaded some real officers from the Metropolitan Police to plausibility-check my story of dodgy art dealers. Hope to see you there! @headlinebooks.bsky.social
Getting ready to get on air and talk about this baby
Go buy this!!

In episode 18 - Health and the lumbersexual with @sarahsteeleauthor.bsky.social Dave Harries and Demitris Deech
1963 inspiration for the High Court trial in my new novel, thanks to a fantastic exhibition about Christine Keeler at Demontford Uni. THE LAST LETTERS OF VILLA CLARA is a romp through 1960s London and Italy in search of art thieves, with a large dose of Profumo thrown in @headlinebooks.bsky.social
My new novel as a 2025 Oscars look. THE LAST LETTERS OF VILLA CLARA is out next week in paperback! #bookstolooks #2025oscars #oscars. @headlinebooks.bsky.social @sheilland.bsky.social
Deech stumbles upon a new motto for the SAS in episode 17 of The Dull Man's Podcast with @sarahsteeleauthor.bsky.social
I’m on a writing retreat in the Alps. There are dogs, sofas, coffee, snowy mountains and fluffy slippers. The words are flowing and I don’t want to go home!
Recognise her? This was taken on a research trip to Delft, to find out Johannes Vermeer. THE LAST LETTERS FROM VILLA CLARA is out next month in paperback - find out how I ‘created’ a fictional work by the great master. Hope I haven’t given away too much about getting a forgery past the experts!
I’ve been lucky enough to have a sneak preview of this, and it’s a gorgeous read. If you only do one thing this evening, preorder it!
Marissa Constantinou@marissconstantinou.bsky.social · 2y agoThrilled to reveal the cover for Listen with Father by @carosanderson.bsky.social, an astounding book about the transformative power of listening, and about how we remember those we have loved and lost. Available to pre-order, with 48hrs left to have your name in the book if you order with Unbound.
Coming this Monday 30th - episode 14 of The Dull Man’s Podcast with Demitris Deech @sarahsteeleauthor.bsky.social and myself getting very excited about vending machines, parking and the middle aisle of Lidl.
Book 5 … She’s out in the world! I’m so proud of this novel, which let me indulge my love of art. It’s packed with lost masterpieces, 60s London and a decades-spanning love story. I can’t for people to meet Leonora Birch and the young women who inhabit her boarding house. @headlinebooks.bsky.social
