M.W. Craven | Author
Multi-award winning, Sunday Times bestselling author M.W. Craven is best known for his wildly successful Washington Poe and Tilly Bradshaw crime fiction series, which has now been translated into thirty languages. His books have won the Crime Writers’ Association Gold Dagger, the Ian Fleming Steel Dagger, the Old Peculier Crime Novel of the year and the Capital Crime Fingerprint Award for Best Crime Novel.
Craven’s varied life experiences make him uniquely suited to the crime, thriller and spy genres. He joined the army at sixteen, leaving twelve years later to complete a degree in social work, then taking up the role of a probation officer in Cumbria. Seventeen years later, having reached the rank of assistant chief officer, he made the transition to full-time author.
His US-based Ben Koenig series will soon be a major TV series, and his upcoming new 007 series for younger readers, starting with James Bond and the Secret Agent Academy, is set to be released in June 2026.
