Louise Ward of independent bookshop Wardini Books will be familiar to Nine to Noon listeners from her regular book reviews.

She joins Kathryn along with husband Gareth, as the couple have just released a murder mystery.

It's apt, as they're both ex police officers who run a bookshop.

They talk to Kathryn about the fun they had writing The Bookshop Detective: Dead Girl Gone - which has just hit the bookshelves today.

Gareth and Louise will also be appearing as part of WORD Christchurch Festival on 28 August.
