Emma Styles writes contemporary Australian noir about young women taking on the patriarchy. She grew up on Whadjuk Noongar Country in Perth, Western Australia and now lives in London where she was born. Emma loves a road trip and once sat out a cyclone on the north west coast of WA in a LandCruiser Troop Carrier. She is less afraid of great white sharks than she should be, and hopeless at surfing.
Emma has an MA in crime fiction from the University of East Anglia. Her debut novel, No Country for Girls, won the Little, Brown UEA Crime Fiction Award in 2020 and will be published by Sphere in the UK in July 2022, and by Hachette in Australia and New Zealand in September.

Emma Styles recommends
Into the Flames (2024)
James Delargy
"A claustrophobic and tightly-plotted mystery unfolding beneath the breathless breaking wave of a bushfire. This vividly-realised rural crime thriller keeps you guessing until the very last page. Another excellent Australian noir from James Delargy."
Gallows Wood (2024)
(PC Lucy Halliday, book 1)
Louisa Scarr
"I've just turned the last page of Gallows Wood and I don't want to let the world of these characters go. Gritty, edge-of-your-seat stuff."
Dead Mile (2024)
Jo Furniss
"A smart, funny, scorching summer thriller that makes inventive use of its gridlocked motorway setting, with a deeply human protagonist I was cheering for at every turn. A blisteringly original take on the classic locked-room mystery."
