Joy Kluver has been an avid reader and writer since childhood. More recently she's been escaping the madness of motherhood by turning her hand to crime novels. A book blogger, she's also part of the First Monday Crime team and if you've been to any of their events it's likely you've eaten one of her cookies. She also organises author talks for her local library. Joy lives in SW London with her husband and three children. 'Last Seen' is her debut novel and the first book in the DI Bernadette Noel series.

Joy Kluver recommends

The Killer Question (2025)
Janice Hallett
"Janice's best book yet! Comedically sinister and definitely worthy of a Netflix production."

The Perfect Psychopath (2025)
Alice Hunter
"Merging the realities of prison life with a serial killer story, Alice Hunter has created an intriguing tale that keeps you guessing until the very end. I hope prison psychologist Dr. Ellie Spencer returns."

What We Did In The Storm (2024)
Tina Baker
"A fabulous book... Razor-sharp observations are mixed with quick-witted humour, creating a compelling read. Brilliant."
