Samantha Hayes

Samantha Hayes grew up in Warwickshire, left school at sixteen, avoided university and took jobs ranging from private detective to barmaid to fruit picker and factory worker before finally becoming a crime-writer. Her writing career began when she won a short story competition in 2003. After writing several books under another name, her latest psychological thriller THE INHERITANCE is out now (book twenty-something!), with her next, MOTHER OF THE BRIDE due for release March 2024. Her books are family-based 'domestic noir' thrillers, with the emphasis being on 'real life fiction'. She focuses on current issues and sets out to make her readers ask, 'What if this happened to me or my family?' And you'll always find a BIG twist at the end! GOOD HOUSEKEEPING says "We’re big fans of Samantha Hayes. Her believable psychological thrillers are completely gripping..."
