Gareth Brown wanted to be a writer from a very young age, and he completed his first novel as a teenager. That novel wasn’t very good and he’s been working on his writing ever since. For the last twenty years he has worked in the UK Civil Service and the NHS while writing in his spare time.
When not working or writing, Gareth loves travelling, especially the whirlwind first few hours in a new city and long road trips through beautiful landscapes. He enjoys barbecues, patisseries, playing pool, and falling asleep in front of the television like an old man.
Gareth lives with his wife and two excitable Skye terriers near Edinburgh in Scotland.

The Midnight King (2025)
Tariq Ashkanani
"The best book I've read about a serial killer since Red Dragon... I will be thinking about it for a long time."

The Midnight Carousel (2025)
Fiza Saeed McLynn
"The Midnight Carousel is an outstanding debut, full of everything I love in books: beguiling mysteries, a rich sense of place and time, characters to love and to hate, and a fabulous love story. I adored it."

Water Moon (2025)
Samantha Sotto Yambao
"Water Moon is unlike anything I've ever read, full of wonders and terrors . . . a haunting, half-remembered dream of a book."
