Evelyn Thorne

Evelyn Thorne writes cosy mysteries set in Seabrook, a fictional seaside village where every character has a secret and every mystery runs deeper than it appears.

Her Olivia Crumblewell series follows a newcomer pastry chef who solves mysteries while building a home in a village that doesn’t quite trust her...yet. Think MC Beaton meets Joanne Fluke, with a splash of atmospheric gothic.

When not writing about murder and baked goods, Evelyn explores actual seaside villages, collects vintage baking books, and believes that the best mysteries are the ones where the culprit’s motive makes you slightly sympathize with them.
