Hello, fellow book lovers! 👋
I'm Leo Weston, an author with a love of mysteries, unforgettable characters and stories that keep you turning the pages.
If you're a fan of cosy crime, eccentric characters and English village secrets, let me introduce you to A Body in the Green Room, the first book in my Thomas & Minty Mysteries series.
Set during a literary festival in the Cheshire village of Swanlow, it features Thomas McInally, a bookseller, and Minty Choice, a drag queen with razor-sharp wit. When bestselling crime writer Henry Alder is found dead in the green room, with a locked room and a missing manuscript to contend with, things become decidedly less cosy!
Expect quirky suspects, secrets, plenty of twists and a mystery to unravel. After all, there's nothing quite like a village full of people who know everybody else's business!
My first published book, Finding Him, Finding Me, is something very different. It's a deeply personal memoir that began as a way of remembering someone important to me and became a story I chose to share with others.
Two very different books, but both come from a love of storytelling.
If you enjoy cosy mysteries, memorable characters or discovering authors you haven't read before, I'd love you to join me on this writing journey.
Have you discovered a new favourite author recently? Tell me who you'd recommend. I'm always looking for my next great read!
Happy reading,
Leo Weston ✍️
