C.S. Challinor writes cozy mysteries centered on Rex Graves, a Scottish barrister with a knack for finding himself at the scene of murders. The series began with Christmas is Murder in 2008 and has grown to thirteen books, each set in a different English location where Rex becomes involved in solving a puzzling death. The books follow the cozy mystery formula of an amateur sleuth, closed-circle suspects, and clever whodunit plotting.
Beyond the Rex Graves series, Challinor has written one standalone novel, Breathtaking (2012). The Rex Graves books have built a loyal readership among fans of traditional British-style mysteries who enjoy puzzle-driven plots with a touch of humor.
