I live in a small village in the west of Ireland. My first book (The Third Pig Detective Agency) was published by The Friday Project (an imprint of Harper Collins) in June 2009. It won the Eilis Dillon Award for Best First Novel in the 2010 Bisto CBI Childrens Book of the Year Awards. The second in the series, The Ho Ho Ho Mystery was published late last year and the third, The Curds and Whey Mystery is scheduled for May 2012.

blogging off for now.
Hope you all have a fab Christmas and New Year-I do read you...
