Prolific murder mystery writer Faith Martin talks about her million-selling crime thrillers including the DI Hillary Greene novels, Monica Noble, Jenny Starling and new Ryder and Loveday series.
Faith Martin is the pen name of Oxford-born Jacquie Walton. She also writes as Maxine Berry, Joyce Cato and Jesse Daniels. Most of the crime novels are set in and around Oxford. DI Hillary Greene works out of Thames Valley Police headquarters in Kidlington and the series includes Murder on the Oxford Canal, Murder at the University and Hillary’s Final Case. Monica Noble is a vicar’s wife and the series is set in the fictional Cotswold village of Heyford Bassett. Jenny Starling is a travelling cook who has featured in seven novels including the latest The Country Inn Mystery. The newest series finds a young WPC working with the local coroner to solve a murder mystery in 1960s Oxford.
Walton is best known for the Hillary Greene series. She began her career writing romance novels under the name of Maxine Barry. After achieving moderate success for 25 years, her murder mysteries became sudden global bestsellers when the DI Hillary Greene series was republished by Joffe Books a couple of years ago.
