JAY JONES

Originally from India, Jay and her husband now live in Worcestershire with their very spoilt cat, Sooty.

Her recently published debut novel, I, SAID THE FLY (the first book in The D.I. and The Assassin series ) won the 2022 Page Turner Award in the Crime Genre under its working title The Assassin Who Loved Me. Jay is currently working on book 2 in the series.

Her current submission, LETHAL JUSTICE is the first in a planned series of cross-genre books combining Jay's love of crime thriller/police procedural and fantasy/horror fiction. Set in Southampton in England and Durgapur, a fictitious town in India, this book is a fusion of two cultures and beliefs.

When not writing or reading, Jay enjoys painting, cooking and slow walks – slow because of numerous stops to rescue suicidal earthworms and snails along the way.
