ⓘ About Judith Flanders

Judith Flanders is a mystery fiction author from the United Kingdom that is best known for the “Sam Clair” series of novels. Judith Flanders’ novel “A Murder of Magpies” is an impeccably crafted and whip-smart work that takes you on a whirlwind tour of Paris and London. Inspector Jake Field is the man charged with investigating the case which complicates things as he is Sam’s new boyfriend. Meanwhile, her ex-boyfriend Adan requests for her help and she finds herself yet again in the middle of another investigation. It is not long before she finds herself stretched to the limits particularly when it comes to her loyalties. With nothing but her trusted stock of irrelevant information she got from novels, her cynicism, and satire, Sam finds herself in a race against time.
