M R C Kasasian is a British mystery author with three distinct series, each set in a different historical period. The Gower Street Detective books, beginning with The Mangle Street Murders (2013), follow the brilliant but eccentric private detective Sidney Grice and his ward March Middleton as they solve crimes in Victorian London. The five-book series ran through Dark Dawn Over Steep House (2017) and earned a reputation for dark humor and period atmosphere.

The Sackwater Mysteries moved the setting to World War II Suffolk, with Betty Church and the Suffolk Vampire (2018) introducing Inspector Betty Church as she handles cases on the home front. The Violet Thorn Mysteries, starting with The Horror of Haglin House (2023), are set in the Edwardian era. Across all three series, Kasasian shows a talent for placing quirky, well-drawn characters in richly detailed historical settings.
