Hannah Dennison is a renowned author, hailing from Hampshire, England. She has made a significant impact in the cozy mystery genre with her unique British sense of humor and well-defined characters. One of her most popular series features Vicky Hill, an intrepid female reporter living in Devon. Dennison moved to California with her daughter to pursue a career in screenwriting, and although she has now returned to the UK, her experiences in America have greatly influenced her writing.
Dennison's career has been varied and interesting, with roles ranging from obituary reporter to antique dealer, private jet flight attendant, and Hollywood story analyst. These diverse experiences have given her a wealth of knowledge and insight to draw upon in her writing, adding depth and authenticity to her characters and stories. In addition to her writing, Dennison also teaches mystery writing workshops for the UCLA Writers' Extension Program via Zoom and has served on numerous judging committees for Mystery Writers of America.
Dennison currently resides in the UK, where she shares her life with two high-spirited Hungarian Vizslas. She enjoys all country pursuits, movies, theatre, reading, and seriously good chocolate. Her love of chocolate may even have inspired some of her writing, as she has a reputation for creating delicious and decadent descriptions of food in her books.
Dennison is the author of three mystery series—the Island Sisters Mysteries (Minotaur), the Honeychurch Hall Mysteries (Constable), and the Vicky Hill Mysteries (Constable). Each series features strong, unique characters and intriguing mysteries that keep readers engaged and guessing until the very end.
