Books in Order: A Comprehensive Guide to Kirsty Manning's Novels

Australian author Kirsty Manning grew up in New South Wales, took a degree in literature and communication, and converted years of world travel into the atmospheric historical fiction she is known for. Her first novel, The Midsummer Garden, was published in 2017, and she writes today from Melbourne, where she lives with her husband.

This particular guide covers a single title: The Paris Mystery, released in 2023. One book means there is no sequence to untangle yet, but context helps — this is a novel from six years into her career, written with the assurance of practice rather than the nerves of a debut. Should the story continue in future installments, the reading order will begin right here.
