I write as Marion McKinnon Crook (Always Pack a Candle: A Nurse in the Cariboo) and as Emma Dakin. Hazards in Hampshire: a British Book Tour Mystery has flown out from Camel Press under my cozy mystery name, Emma Dakin. The second book Crime in Cornwall is happily entertaining readers. The third Perils in Yorkshire was released in 2021 and Danger in Edinburgh is out October 2022. We have two more books featuring the tour guide Claire Barclay after that.
