E. C. Bateman is a novelist and antique jewellery specialist. Having made the questionable decision to marry an auctioneer, she moved to Stamford and dreamt up the idea for this series whilst living in a converted Georgian flat overlooking St Mary’s Church in the heart of the town. They’ve since decamped to the surrounding countryside with their baby daughter, but can still be spotted around the cobbled streets on a regular basis.
Her first novel Death at the Auction was published in 2022 with Murder Most Antique released the following year. Both are set in the auction world of Stamford.
