Tania Carver

Tania Carver is the pen name of the husband-and-wife writing team of British authors Martyn and Linda Waites, who write crime thriller novels. They write the Brennan & Esposito series. Prior to forming the writing team with his wife, Martyn wrote several novels under his own name. An old editor of his was looking for a British version of Karin Slaughter or Tess Gerritsen ; Martyn said he was the man (or woman?) for the job. Soon, he ran into difficulty, so he kept having to ask his wife Linda for help, before eventually taking her on as a co-author.
