Hello

I am a writer, researcher and public speaker on Agatha Christie and a member of the Crime Writers’ Association.

I am a huge fan of her work and like many others, I started reading her books in my youth. As a qualified City of London and City of Westminster tour guide, in 2014, I created a series of Agatha Christie’s London walking tours. I now focus on writing and delivering talks about Agatha.

I am delighted that my book “Agatha Christie’s London: A Historical Guide to the Queen of Crime’s Capital” is being published by the History Press, on 5th February 2026. I am employed at The London Archives, the UK’s second largest public archive and the historical archive for the Greater London area. The book combines my love of Agatha with my knowledge of London history.

My other interests are travel, film, theatre and going out for afternoon tea.
