The Write Stuff - Ben Fergusson
Ben Fergusson was born in Southampton,UK, studied English Literature at Warwick University, and Modern Languages at Bristol University, and has worked as an editor, translator and publisher. He has published three award-winning novels all set in Berlin, and the library has just acquired his most recent work, An Honest Man. 18 year old Ralf is having a carefree summer in Berlin in 1989, oblivious of the storm gathering on the other side of the Berlin Wall. An unsettling discovery and Cold War tensions begin to tear his life apart, and he finds himself caught up in a web of deceit, forcing him to make impossible choices.

Murder Ink - JJ Marsh
JJ Marsh is the author of The Beatrice Stubbs series. Jill
grew up in Wales, Africa and the Middle East, where her curiosity for culture
took root and triggered an urge to write. After graduating in English
Literature and Theatre Studies, she worked as an actor, teacher, writer,
director, editor, journalist and cultural trainer all over Europe.
The Beatrice Stubbs Series are not just heart-racing
crime novels, they are also European adventures. Each story is immersed in the
landscape, culture, cuisine, architecture and personality of its location.
The library recently acquired Beatrice Stubbs Series Box
Set One which contains her first three novels – Behind Closed Doors, Raw Material and Tread Softly. Box Set Two will
be added to our collection next month.
Marsh lives in Switzerland with her husband and three
dogs. To visit her online, click here.
