Welcome readers!
Welcome to the website of urban fantasy author P. L. Matthews. Here, you can dive into the enchanting world of the Green Witch Mystery Series, explore the thrilling adventures of the Digital Detective series and discover the Harmony Witch Mystery series. Fast-paced, witty, and packed with magical puzzles, the stories are perfect for fans of urban fantasy, clever mysteries, and a touch of humour and romance. Expect sweet, closed-door romance — often a slow burn — found family, and an Australian setting.
The stories and characters in my books are entirely the product of my overactive imagination—something I blame on my mother and her fairy tales ✨📚. Any resemblance to people I know is, of course, pure coincidence 😉. As for the quirky humour, that’s mostly mine… except for the occasional line borrowed from my husband—which only proves I am listening, even when I am staring into space plotting murder 🔪😇

Add a handsome tech mage, a colourful cast of supernatural friends and murders that refuse to solve themselves, and life in magical Sydney is anything but peaceful.
Fans of Heather G. Harris, Annabel Chase, Lauretta Hignett and Helen Harper will feel right at home.
