Kaye C Hill

A twenty-year career involving railway embankments, steel-capped boots and chainsaws inspired Kaye C Hill to turn to crime fiction.

She trained in woodland management, and her first job was managing trees on the railway embankments.She was one of a very few women working in a male-dominated environment, and this experience gave her the inspiration for an independent-minded private investigator with an intriguing past but dont ask her where the homicidal chihuahua came from!

Kayes sparky sleuth Lexy Lomax lives on the Suffolk coast where, when not writing, Kaye herself spends as much time as possible bird-watching on the exposed estuaries and wetlands.
