After winning numerous prizes for his short fiction, Richard Hooton’s debut novel THE MARGARET CODE will be published on 10 April 2025. The voice-led whodunnit follows eighty-nine-year-old Margaret whose failing memory holds the key to the murder investigation taking place on her street. Inspired by Richard’s relationship with his grandmother, THE MARGARET CODE combines a twisty, compelling crime plot with an emotive study of illness and its effect on family relationships, alongside an intriguing historical connection. Richard was born and brought up in Nottinghamshire and now lives in Greater Manchester. He studied English Literature at the University of Wolverhampton before becoming a journalist and then going on to work in communications. His short stories and flash fiction have won awards in various competitions and been published in several anthologies. You can follow Richard on X, Bluesky, Facebook and Instagram: @RJHooton
