Welcome to the web page of historical crime writer
E.S. Thomson.
Greetings, historical crime fiction lovers and welcome to my web page! My new book, UNDER GROUND is published by Constable on 5th October, 2023. Set in the cholera-stricken London of 1854, it is a dark and gothic tale of murder, ambition, family secrets and betrayal. UNDER GROUND is the sixth adventure for cross-dressing apothecary Jem Flockhart, and is her most perilous adventure yet. Other books in this best-selling series are:
1.)BELOVED POISON. 2.) DARK ASYLUM. 3.) THE BLOOD. 4.) SURGEONS’ HALL. and 5.) NIGHTSHADE.
My work has been shortlisted for the Scottish Crime Book of the Year Award, the Scottish Arts Council First Book Award, the Saltire First Book Award, and long-listed for the CWA Historical Dagger Award.
