Australian Crime Author Inessa Jackson

A passion for murder...

For Inessa, crime writing isn’t just about a captivating mystery. It's the fun of unravelling motives for murder and delving into the secrets & lies of seemingly charming characters. Add a killer on the loose, a handful of red herrings... And let the fun begin.
