Author: AG Barnett

AG Barnett writes British mystery fiction in several recurring settings and periods. A Death at Dinner belongs to the contemporary Mary Blake Mysteries, which pair amateur investigation with show-business comedy. When The Party Died and The Final Game are Brock and Poole stories, a modern police procedural sequence led by two detectives. Barnett’s other projects range from 1920s country-house cases to mysteries set in 1950s Oxfordshire. The author’s reading guide keeps each sequence independent while giving its central investigators room to develop across multiple cases. This structure allows Barnett to shift tone and historical setting without placing every story inside one fictional timeline.
