Victoria Twead is a New York Times, Wall Street Journal and Amazon bestselling author whose books span memoir, cosy mystery, psychological crime and children's fiction. Her much-loved Old Fools memoir series was inspired by her years living in a remote Spanish mountain village, where she and her husband became accidental chicken farmers. She is also the creator of the charming Sixpenny Cross cosy mysteries, the darker, twist-filled Dead of Night crime series, and the delightful illustrated Mrs Arden children's books. Victoria and Joe finally retired to Australia to watch their new grandchildren thrive amongst kangaroos and koalas.
