About Hazel
Where the supernatural meets the small town — and someone always ends up dead
Hazel Nightwood writes paranormal cozy mysteries for readers who want their amateur sleuths with a little extra. A little magic. A few ghosts. The occasional ancient fae bargain.
Her books are set in the kind of places that feel like they were made for secrets — windswept Irish islands, fog-wrapped Scottish lochs, Welsh fishing villages, Cotswolds villages, and the candlelit back streets of New Orleans. Each series features a distinct world, a distinct supernatural twist, and the kind of warm, irresistible storytelling that makes it very hard to put the book down at a sensible hour.
No graphic violence. No darkness for its own sake. Just atmosphere, charm, wit, and murder — in the most delightful possible combination.
