T(ahnee) G(eorgina) Campbell wrote her first crime fiction story at the age of sixteen as a gift for her best friend. At only 40 pages long it fell considerably short of a “novel” but it marked the beginning of a creative journey that would eventually spawn the first of the Bow Street Society mystery novels; The Case of the Curious Client.  During that time she attended the University of Winchester where she acquired her Bachelor of Arts Degree in English Studies and wrote a dissertation on the social and cultural importance of the works of Agatha Christie.

She also became a volunteer member of staff on an international text-based gaming website where she was responsible for creating, and facilitating, storyline-games in a Victorian Era setting.  The historical content of the reference pages for this setting were therefore researched, collated, and maintained by her. It was as part of her work for this site that she came up with the idea of The Bow Street Society. Though her writing is independent from the website, the time she spent as a member of staff there helped her better understand character formation/evolution, effective use of description, and clue-puzzle mystery plot mechanics.

The second of the Bow Street Society mysteries, The Case of The Lonesome Lushington, is on sale now, in addition to a short story collection, The Case of The Shrinking Shopkeeper & Other Stories. 

She also writes a monthly feature for Fresh Lifestyle Magazine and the official Bow Street Society newsletter, the Gaslight Gazette.
