M.S. Morris writes British mystery fiction set in some of England’s most recognizable locations. The Bridget Hart series, which began with Aspire to Die in 2019, places its investigations in Oxford, using the university city’s colleges, libraries, and academic world as settings for murder. The series has grown to eight books and appeals to readers who enjoy mysteries where the setting is as important as the plot.
The DCI Tom Raven series, starting with The Landscape of Death in 2022, moves to Scarborough on the Yorkshire coast. Tom Raven is a detective who left the town years ago and returns to find that both the place and his own history hold unresolved questions. With ten books published through 2025, the Raven series has become Morris’s most active ongoing work. Morris also has a newer Carys Morgan series beginning in 2026 and an earlier standalone thriller, The Red Room (2018).
