Geoff Start
Geoff’s early childhood was spent in rural North Norfolk before he moved to South West London. London is captured in his novel, as well as the village of Blakeney.
His mother was a domestic science teacher and a great cook, so from an early age she encouraged him to understand and appreciate food, and gastronomy plays an integral part in his book.
This is Geoff’s debut novel, which reflects his sense of humour and love of eccentric characters.

The Biscuit Barrel Murder
28 Jan 2023Wispy Fescue runs a detective agency with his colleagues, Strangely Drye and Miss Wanda Cushway.

If they’re ever to make a name for themselves, they need a high-profile case – and soon.
Wispy’s chance presents itself with the conviction of Miss Josephine Leighton, the prospective parliamentary candidate for Lewisham West, who is found guilty of murdering her fiancé in a preposterous miscarriage of justice. He and his colleagues are tasked with finding crucial evidence to overturn the conviction. Their mission takes them from Norfolk across England and over the Channel, and they take every opportunity to indulge in the local gastronomy on their travels.
With only thirteen days until the sentencing, can Wispy find the real killer and save Josephine from the hangman’s noose?
