From Idea to Bookshelf: My Mystery Thriller, The Bitter Brew

Science isn’t my only passion — I love a good mystery too. Frieda McFadden is one of my favourite authors, and I loved Riley Sager’s “The Only One Left”. So I decided to write one of my own.

The Bitter Brew is a short thriller mystery that I wrote and that has now been published by Bribooks. Taking an idea from a first spark to a finished, printed book taught me a lot about planning a plot, building suspense and, above all, finishing what I start.

If you enjoy a twisty mystery, I’d love for you to read it.
