About Mysterious Books

Mysterious Books was founded in 2005 by myself, Simon Halliday, and is the home of my fictional schoolboy detective Peter Black. There are three published Peter Black mysteries to date, suitable for ages 9 years and upwards - all three are available from Waterstone's and other good book stores.

If you are a school teacher in Lancashire, England, then you should know that I am planning local school visits in 2010. I will be happy to give talks, read excerpts of my writing and answer questions for your class.

If you have written a novel and think Mysterious Books can help you get it moving then please make contact by e-mail:
