Award Winning Author
Welcome to my world of British cozy mysteries with royal glitz and glam!
About The Author
Storyteller at Heart
Veronica Cline Barton’s lifelong love affair with British murder mysteries inspired her to
embark on a literary, whodunnit adventure after retiring from a career in engineering and
technical sales.
Her cozy, country house murder mysteries spin the happenings when country life meets the high life. The books are set in luxurious surroundings; revolve around glamorous events; are packed with bizarre scenarios to keep you guessing; have a touch of wry humor to lighten up the mood when needed (frequently); and are spiced with a splash of romance to keep things interesting.
No one is safe, or above suspicion in these tales be they royals, actors, villagers, guests, or the inhabitants of Cherrywood Hall. Hijinks, high drama, and flowing cocktails abound.
When not writing, Veronica travels the world looking for inspiration and resides in California
with her husband, Bruce, and two cats, Daisy and Ebbie.
