What a complete JOY of an evening! 💜🩷 #MrBs in Bath is a magical shop - and its staff (especially Katrina, Becky and Rohan) are the loveliest of people. Thank you to everyone who came (including @HazelPriorBooks and @StonexEmma!). This was one to cherish xx #TheNightInQuestion

👀 COVER REVEAL: my new book, TROUBLEMAKER is out next January. It’s on the theme of the girl who cried wolf. How do you solve a murder when no one believes it took place? And now the killer has their sights set on YOU… Available to preorder now: bit.ly/4mbmWKj

Fantastic time at this year's #TheakstonsCrime in Harrogate. Hanging out with old friends, meeting new friends, and a fabulous panel to round things off. Apparently the bookshop completely sold out of Can You Solve the Murder? Let's do it again next year…

On my way to #TheakstonsCrime where we have pre-launched many (MANY!) huge global bestsellers. Rereading this dark, clever slice of pulse-beating fiction- a major debut coming 2026. Find me at Harrogate and I'll share a proof... #HowToGetAwayWithMurder 📚@BeccaPhilipson
