Paul Mason writes atmospheric fiction where folklore, family secrets, and the long shadow of memory collide. Raised in the north of England and still happiest under a grey sky, he crafts slow-burn mysteries threaded with the uncanny—stories that ask what we inherit, and what it costs to keep it. Before turning to novels, Paul spent years in digital media and music production, a habit that still sneaks into his pages as rhythmic prose, late-night drafts, and the occasional soundtrack humming while rain taps the window. His ongoing Beaumont Cycle blends historical echoes with modern lives: hidden rooms, misread letters, and the quiet dread of the past refusing to stay put. Paul’s style is deliberately a little unorthodox. He likes negative space and subtext, scenes that enter late and leave early, and images that earn their meaning over a few pages rather than a single line. You’ll find elliptical beats, recurring motifs, and time that sometimes folds back on itself. Dialogue is spare; tension builds in what’s not said; clues hide in cadence as much as in plot. If you enjoy fiction that trusts you to read between the lines, you’ll feel at home. If you prefer every question answered the moment it’s asked, consider this your friendly heads-up: Paul’s books reward patience—and they pay you back with resonance. That said, he’s not trying to be difficult. The puzzle pieces do fit, the threads do tie off, and the characters do face the consequences of their choices. Paul simply believes readers are partners, not passengers. Expect quiet hauntings over jump-scares, character over spectacle, and lingering aftertaste over sugar rush. When researching, Paul can be found walking churchyards at dusk, bothering archivists with impossible questions, and taking too many notes in cafés that serve strong tea. At home, two opinionated dogs—Bo (a Husky with ideas above his station) and Luna (a German Shepherd who takes editing very seriously)—keep him on schedule. If you like gothic suspense, folklore-laced mysteries, and character-driven twists, you’re in safe hands.
