About Jade Grafton

I've been a storyteller since I was small—long before my handwriting was legible—and now, from my home in Derbyshire, I spend my free time crafting deliciously compelling, impossible mysteries designed to keep my protagonists—and readers—guessing. All my work is published through my own imprint, Crimson Nightingale Press.

When I’m not writing I run a busy pet-sitting business or hunt for treasures while thrifting for vintage finds. I share my life with my amazing husband, three crazy dogs, and two step-children. 

The only thing that rivals my passion for writing and animals is my devotion to Cornwall. In the future we aim to trade the Derbyshire hills for the Cornish coast. To spend days swimming in the ocean, burning through a pile of books, and plotting my next mysterious murder. What could be more perfect than sun, sand, and the occasional fictional homicide.
