Caz Frear



Caz Frear grew up in Coventry and spent her teenage years dreaming of moving to London and writing a novel. After fulfilling her first dream, it wasn't until she moved back to Coventry thirteen years later that the writing dream finally came true.
She has a first-class degree in History & Politics, which she's put to enormous use over the years by working as a waitress, shop assistant, retail merchandiser and, for the past twelve years, a headhunter.
When she's not agonising over snappy dialogue or incisive prose, she can be found shouting at the TV when Arsenal are playing or holding court in the pub on topics she knows nothing about.

Never to Be Found (2026)
Jo Spain
"Few writers set up and deliver so brilliantly as this writer at the top of her game."

It Ends Here (2026)
Heidi Perks
"Such a refreshing take on the 'whodunnit.' Emotional, tense and twisty, as we've come to expect from the brilliant Heidi Perks. This definitely her best yet. An absolute must-read!"
thumb
Kiss Marry Kill (2025)
Laura Marshall
"Sharp, witty, and oh so very dark, KISS MARRY KILL is another belter of a novel from the fantastic Laura Marshall. Brilliantly-drawn characters making bad decisions, villains you'll loathe, emotional honesty - what's not to love! This deliciously wicked tale of female friendship should be at the top of your must-read list."
