Sarah Painter
Sarah Painter has always been drawn to the quiet spaces where reality brushes against the magical. From her home in rural Scotland, she crafts contemporary fantasy novels that feel at once familiar and enchanted, offering readers a world where hidden powers stir just beneath the surface of everyday life.
Painter first made her mark with The Language of Spells, a lyrical story that hinted at the emotional depth and atmospheric beauty that would become hallmarks of her work. But it’s through the Crow Investigations series that she has truly carved her place among readers who crave their mysteries laced with magic. Set in a secret London where ancient families guard old powers and private investigator Lydia Crow tries to keep one foot in the ordinary world, the series blends urban fantasy with classic noir in a way that feels both fresh and timeless.
Crow Investigations
In the hidden corners of London, where old magic breathes beneath the city's modern skin, the Crow family keeps their secrets—and their power—closely guarded. Crow Investigations weaves a quietly hypnotic blend of urban fantasy and mystery, inviting readers into a world where every missing person and whispered threat might mask something far older and more dangerous than it seems.
Crow Investigations consists of ten books and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
