When Broken Dove, second in the Treloar crime thriller series, won Best Adult Fiction at the prestigious 2017 Cornish literary award - known by some as 'The Cornish Bookers' L A Kent was delighted. "It was especially pleasing because these awards are not only about good books, but about Cornwall. We do try to bring alive not only the sometimes fiendish and evil ways in which people behave but also the beautiful county we live in, and we're very pleased that the judges liked our approach to our books and thought we did just that!" As one of the awards' judges put it: "I just couldn't put it down, it was keeping me up to the early hours every night. I live in West Cornwall and I could really recognise my Cornwall ...... it was great to read a book set in Cornwall that didn't just throw out a few place names and descriptions" A story crafting wordsmith met a psychologist and L A Kent was born. L A Kent is the pen name of Louise Harrington and Andy Sinden. Having lived in Cornwall for 20 years L A Kent writes not only about the dark, evil, obsessed, and sometimes plain mad and bad characters appearing on the dark side of their books, but also empathetically about the county, its people and their lifestyle. And bring to life Cornwall and the visitors that descend from the UK, mainland Europe and further afield, even as the villains put people to death. Prior to writing both travelled extensively in their corporate lives, spending time in the USA, Canada, Australia, Brazil, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Taiwan and Singapore to name but a few, as well as frequently spending time in most Western European countries. They lived and worked in South Africa for two years, also visiting Namibia and Zimbabwe and bring these world experiences to the overseas episodes in the DI Treloar crime thrillers.
