Christian Wright writes modern-day Agatha Christie–style cozy mysteries filled with fair-play puzzles, emotional depth, and twisty whodunits.

His books follow amateur sleuths as they untangle secrets in luxury settings, charming country houses, and family gatherings gone wrong. Every case delivers an intricate plot grounded in justice, character, and clever misdirection.

When he’s not plotting fictional crimes, you’ll find him enjoying old detective shows, spending time with family, or playing video games.

📚 Start the Iris May Mystery series with Perish in Paradise, or dive into the Jonah James Mystery series with Lies and Lip Service.
