T M Payne was born in Lee-on-Solent, Hampshire and now lives on the Wirral with her wonderful partner. Having worked in the criminal justice system for eighteen years, the last fourteen of which as a police case investigator within the Domestic Violence Unit, she has now taken a break to concentrate on her passion for writing crime novels. She is crazy about animals and if you walk past her with your dog, she will probably ask if she can pat it on the head. Or take it home with her. Or both. She loves laughing, Christmas, playing golf (badly), walking along New Brighton beach (not walking her dog because she hasn’t got one), snow, sunshine, sunsets, family and friends. She dislikes beetroot.

“A brilliant debut.” —Steve Cavanagh“An excellent crime novel, full of humor and pathos as well as utterly realistic action. A stunning debut.” —Elly Griffiths“A thrilling debut…If you are a fan of police procedurals, this one set in the mean streets of Liverpool is for you.” —Mari Hannah“A twisty, compelling, page-turning cracker of a debut. Full of great characters, T.M. Payne's Long Time Dead is so absorbing you'll miss your bus stop AND stay up past your bedtime. Perfect for fans of Val McDermid and Michael Connelly.” —Chris Merritt“A superb debut…Gritty, well-paced and packed with vividly drawn characters. T. M. Payne has hit the ground running with Long Time Dead.” —M. W. Craven“A gripping and gritty start to what promises to be an excellent new police procedural series.” —David Fennell“An evocative, brilliantly plotted debut which I defy you to put down. I promise it will haunt you long after the end.” —Graham Bartlett“Make way for the brilliant Detective Sheridan Holler! True fans of Val McDermid will love Payne's writing.” —A. J. West“T. M. Payne is one of the most exciting new voices in crime fiction. In Long Time Dead, she crafts a richly-textured thriller that brims with authentic detail. I loved the humor, the poignancy and the intricate rendering of Liverpool in all its heart and grit. The comparisons to Val McDermid are well earned indeed.” —Kia Abdullah“Worth every interminable minute it takes to wind down.” —Kirkus Reviews“Good twists, and plenty of red herrings, and the book builds to a very tense and unexpected conclusion, with some neat stings in the tale…a really quick and engaging read.” —Deadly Pleasures Mystery Magazine
