SL Beaumont

SL Beaumont is the author of the award-winning novels The War Photographers and Shadow of Doubt, the Kat Munro thriller series and the art-crime series The Carlswick Mysteries.

She lives in beautiful New Zealand, which is only problematic when the travel bug bites (which it does fairly often)! Her passion for travel has seen her take many long-haul flights to various parts of the world. Her love of history helps her determine the destination, and the places she visits are a constant source of inspiration for her. Prior to becoming an author, SL Beaumont worked in banking in London and New York and is now a partner of a chartered accounting firm in Auckland.

The War Photographers won the IRDA 2024 Historical Fiction award. Shadow of Doubt won the Indie Reader Mystery/Suspense/Thriller award, was longlisted for the Ngaio Marsh Award for best novel and was a semi-finalist for both the Publisher's Weekly BookLife Prize and the Kindle Book Awards. Death Count was also a semi-finalist in the Publisher's Weekly BookLife Prize.
