A lifelong marketing executive, Liam Ashe is a novice novelist with a love for the great authors and sleuths of detective fiction's Golden Age. Growing up on the twisty tales of Agatha Christie, Ngaio Marsh, John Dickson Carr, Ellery Queen and other mystery masters, he marveled at the authors' devious minds and impossible crimes. Liam's inaugural series, featuring professional researcher and Scottish historian Elle Cunningham Mackay, is an homage to these masters--with a little modern sensibility mixed in. Elle's Scottish-flavored mysteries will immerse the reader in a world of kilts, bagpipes, Highland games and haggis. Liam's other works include the Arca Noctis series of thrillers starring curiosity store owner Emery Vaughn and a pair of Golden Age mystery series co-written with author Beatrice Bonnie, one featuring sleuth and former spy Mafalda Marchand and the other featuring Vicar James Valentine.
