About the Author

Chris Clement-Green recently retired from Thames Valley Police after sixteen years as a uniform sergeant, followed by five as a civilian investigator on serious and organised crime teams - which included working on several murder incident rooms. Her last job involved the management of sixty registered sex offenders. Since becoming a serious writer in 2007, Chris has had several articles and letters published both home and abroad, and was the winner of the Oriel Davis Prose Competition in 2016 and a finalist in the Women in Comedy Festival 2016 writing competition with her monologue, Queenie. Chris has now moved to rural Wales and set up The Welsh Writing Shed, from where she runs tutored and untutored writing retreats (thewelshwritingshed.co.uk).
