Patricia Gibney, creator of the popular Garda Detective Inspector Lottie Parker series of gritty thrillers, is astonishingly prolific. I can’t think of another Irish author who, in the space of four years, has published eight novels, all of which have sold extremely well across digital, audio and print.
She is also unusual in that she initially made her impact on the literary world digitally. Her first novels were sold on Amazon long before they were picked up and published as physical books.
Her first effort,
The Missing Ones, sold, to the Mullingar native’s huge astonishment, more than 100,000 copies and she has racked up well over 1.5 million in digital sales for all her books.
