Lovely tranquil way to start the day. Morning everyone.

🤣🤣🤣

Finally, I can share the blame for the slow passage of time.

Thanks a lot, Jason! You're a star! (And also a lovely chap!)

My first event of 2026 and it's at a lovely community library run by volunteers. If you're anywhere near Rhoose on Friday 20th February at 7pm, please come along and say hello. I'll be talking about Eddie Giral and the Occupation series – there will be wine and nibbles! Tickets from Rhoose Library.

Thanks a lot, Ian. Very much hope you enjoy reading it. Have a good half term!

I've been reliably informed that today is International Croissant Day. Oh well, if I must...

Ah, right. It's a community library run by volunteers.

Thanks, Phil! Less than four months now!

Wait a minute! There's a new @chrislloydauthor.bsky.social book coming out!?

Yay, thanks a lot for pre-ordering! I knew the whole time thing would be my fault!

Thanks! I hope you enjoy it!🤞

Thanks a lot, Simon!

Cover reveal!!! Here's the cover of the next book in the Occupation series. Out in hardback and ebook on 14 May. I hope you enjoy Eddie's latest contretemps in Occupied Paris!
Probably best to rush over to the following link now to get those preorders in...

Brilliant, ta!

Nothing planned locally yet. I'll keep you posted if there is one.
(By the way, would you be all right to delete the DM as I keep getting a notification🙄 Ta!)

Sorry, I can't read DMs on here! All well. Renovation going slowly! Hope you're both well.

Hope you enjoy it!🤞🙄

After PLR day, just one more example of how wonderful libraries are. Take a look at this lovely display of my Eddie Giral books in Rhoose Community Library for my event there next month. Thank you to the brilliant volunteer librarians.

Happy PLR day! Huge thank you to everyone who has borrowed my books in their local public library, and to all the wonderful libraries and librarians who work so hard. Every time a reader borrows a book from a library, the author gets a few pence and a lovely warm glow – and they all add up!

One of the most exciting but nerve-racking moments is when you see the cover for your next book for the first time. And the one for the next Eddie Giral book is a stunner!!!😍📚 A lovely early Christmas present! All will be revealed in the new year...

Only 23 days until CARNIVAL OF LIES comes out in paperback from @panmacmillan.bsky.social! Below is a recent review from Australia's Canberra Weekly...

My pleasure, Alis! You know how much I love the new book!

Very happy to have taken part in this year's @historia-hwa.bsky.social Christmas Book feature with a couple of recommendations for Christmas reading. I've chosen two scorchers by @alishawkinsauthor.bsky.social and @gjwilliams92.bsky.social which I think you'll love.

This weekend I'll be at the fabulous Newcastle Noir for some criminally good fun. Check out the programme at newcastlenoir.co.uk
I'm thrilled to be on the When They Sound the Last All Clear panel with the brilliant Julie Anderson, Christina Koning, Mary Jane Riley and @valpennyauthor.bsky.social

This is a new high...

The Hanging Man Investigation is out now. Atkins and Palmer book 2, available in paperback and ebook.

And if you've read the Locked Trilogy, or Unlocked, you might even see a familiar face or two.
