Like my nails? I celebrated the completion of the Saint-Maurice Mysteries series by having them done for the first time. Didn't the artist do a good job with matching the colours? I love them! 😍
Christa Bakker
Of Dutch origins, formerly in France and presently based in southern Britain, Christa Bakker spends her days gazing at romantic countryside, wondering how to describe it to do it justice. She loves good food, good puzzles and good villains.
Christa writes happy little bloody murders, but if she stares at you, don’t worry. She’s not planning to kill you, she’s just borrowing body parts for her next character.

Who is that good-looking man? Ladies and gentlemen, meet my husband. I've written a blog post all about how he influences my writing.

Where do you like to read? Inside? Outside? Both? Obviously, it depends on the weather, but if at all possible, I like to take my book outside.
