USA Today bestselling author H.Y. Hanna writes atmospheric destination thrillers set in beautiful—and often deadly—international locations, as well as light-hearted “cozy mysteries” blending humour, clever plots and quirky characters. With over 30 novels published and translated into several languages, her books and audiobooks have delighted readers around the world.

After graduating from Oxford University, Hsin-Yi spent years trying to fit into a “real” job, before finally returning to her first love: writing. She worked as a freelance writer for several years, winning awards for her poetry, short stories and journalism, before turning to writing novels full-time.

Throughout her life, Hsin-Yi has called many places home—from Taiwan to London, Dubai to New Zealand—but she has finally unpacked her bags for good in Perth, Western Australia, where she spends most days fighting with her cat Muesli for her office chair.

When she’s not plotting murders, Hsin-Yi can often be found plotting garden beds. She loves romantic, old-fashioned roses and is obsessed with the challenge of growing an English cottage garden in a dry heatwave climate… something almost as tricky as crafting the perfect crime!
