If I Tell is the first in the Shaw and Darmody series of crime thrillers published by Penguin, set in the fictional Dublin suburb of Clonchapel. In June 2023 When They See Me was published and received excellent reviews – described as ‘a thrilling read,’ (The Independent) and ‘an impressive follow up.’ (Belfast Telegraph.) She also writes for children. Her first children’s novel, Adam’s Starling, won a Bisto Award (the Eilís Dillon Memorial) for that year. A primary school teacher by training, Gill worked for many years in Tallaght and other schools in south Dublin, and this experience informed and inspired her earliest writings, as did her work on a children’s helpline. She is drawn to the exploration of the domestic, reflecting the real experiences of living in a world where the best and worst of what it means to be human exist side by side. The next Shaw and Darmody is to be published by Penguin in 2025, and a standalone thriller in 2026. Gill lives in Rathfarnham with Kevin and Angus (one of these is a dog). They have two adult daughters. A pair of disapproving feline siblings complete the picture.
