Michael Wood

Hello, welcome to my Amazon author page. I am Michael Wood, author of the bestselling crime fiction series featuring DCI Matilda Darke and the psychological thriller series featuring Dr Olivia Winter. As of 2026 there are fourteen books in the Matilda Darke series and three Olivia Winter. I'm also the author of five standalone psychological thrillers. I am constantly scribbling away and have many other projects up the sleeves of my duffel coat. When I'm not writing, I'm usually moaning about having little sleep and talking about my favourite biscuit on social media. Look me up on Facebook (MichaelWoodBooks), Twitter (@MichaelHWood) and Instagram (MichaelWoodBooks) or visit my website (MichaelWoodBooks). I'm a massive fan of reading crime fiction as I like to keep an eye on the competition and wondering if I can steal any of their ideas, give the characters a Sheffield accent, and pass them off as my own original creation. Happy reading.
