The Mysterious Miss Mayhew

With plenty of suspense and angst and with well-drawn characters (even the minor ones) this is a compelling read and proves Osmond is on top of her craft * Red Online *Osmond has a light touch, a sharp wit, an eye for detail and a real gift for creating believable, appealingly complex characters * Living North Magazine *

Hazel Osmond has been an advertising copywriter for nearly twenty years, working on a variety of accounts, from house builders to building societies; furniture stores to museums. She has won the Woman & Home short story competition sponsored by Costa and the Yeovil short story prize, and her first romantic comedy Who’s Afraid of Mr Wolfe?, was shortlisted for the Romantic Comedy of the Year by the UK’s Romantic Novelists’ Association in 2012. She has gone on to write three further romantic comedies and a range of short stories published in magazines. Northumberland is her home and, when not writing, she is a pain to live with.
