Author of the Clara Pascal, Rickman & Foster, and Rowan & Palmer series

Margaret Murphy

Welcome to my website! My writing includes psychological suspense and detective thrillers written under my own name and published by Joffe Books; a trilogy of forensic thrillers penned as A.D. Garrett; two serial killer thrillers set in Liverpool, written under the pseudonym Ashley Dyer; and in September 2023 a brand new London based series. Dead Man Walking features DS Rick Turner, a detective placed in an impossible situation on the day of his biggest case comes to trial. Published by HQ Digital, it will be available in paperback and kindle, and the book has been optioned for TV adaptation. More info and pre-order links here.

Do explore my blogs for writing tips, articles and book recommendations (see Shelf Indulgence), and I hope you’ll stay in touch via my social media!
