About the author

Adrian Raistrick

Blooming Mayhem: A Yorkshire Revolution in Sequins and Scandal. Raistrick weaponizes British comedy, creating stories that read like Downton Abbey colliding with Love Island. Beatrice and Constance are Harrogate socialites who've discovered that approaching sixty means the statute of limitations on good behavior has expired. These aren't typical "women of a certain age"—they're weapons-grade divas who'll burn establishments down in designer heels. Raistrick writes with surgical precision, delivering dialogue that crackles with authentic venom.View all by Adrian Raistrick
