edit data

Stuart lives in London with his amazing wife and two daughters. He drinks lots of tea.

What else?

When he left university he went travelling for three months and stayed away for five years. Every time his parents asked when he’d be back he told them next week, and meant it.

Stuart is not to be trusted. In the nicest possible way.

He’s got a degree in English and Philosophy, which makes him excellent at arguing and terrible at choosing degrees.

Having trained for no particular career, he has dabbled in most of them. He stocked shelves in a Darwin bookshop, taught English in Shanghai, worked for a technology magazine in London, wrote travel articles in Dubai, and now he’s a freelance journalist. None of this was planned, he just kept getting lo ...more

Stu WON'T be on Jimmy Fallon

Alas, we didn't manage to vote a lad from Widnes, England onto The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. Thanks for trying, though. It was amazing to see so many people get involved. I hope you're all having an amazing day. Any offers of babysitting, PhD writing, tea making etc, will be honoured in the next - checks notes - 272 years. Gulp.

Stuart Turton answered Tami C's question: Just read "Murder at the End of the World," and am almost done immediately re-reading it. Don't know how I missed "The Devil and the Dark Water," but it's next (after a 3rd read of Hardcastle). Is there a Blackheath in it? (If not I'm DONE with you!) Keep 'em coming. 8,000 characters, 700 mysteries, and 9,000,000 missed clues, these are the kinds of novels I need. Every 4 years is fine, just don't stop. No Blackheath in that one I'm afraid, but there are a few nods to things coming up.

Hi everybody, just wanted to let you know that I'm about to embark on a tour of the US. My plan is to tell a lot of jokes, speak in a northern British accent, and - hopefully - meet as many of you as I can. Details and tickets are on my website, which is linked in my bio. See you friends!
