ⓘ About J.A. Baker
JA Baker is a mystery, suspense, and thriller author that was born and grew up and North East England. She has loved languages, genealogy, and local history for as long as she can remember. This meant that she read many genres growing up, though she gravitated towards psychological thrillers as she grew older. After several tries, she finally got signed by Bloodhound Books and in 2017 published “Undercurrent” her debut novel. By 2020, she had written eight more titles that would go on to be just as successful as her debut. When Baker is not writing her novels, she will usually be found pottering and tending to her plants in the back garden or eating chocolate cake at the local coffee shop.
