About Jason Mann

Jason Mann (writing as J.H.Mann) is a journalist and writer living in Torquay. His recent Cornish mystery The Echoing Shore has received a number of awards, including being the adult fiction winner of the 2025 Selfies Book Awards at the London Book Fair. His latest novel The Silver Tide, which is set in a 19th century Cornish fishing town and inspired by a true story, involved extensive research with organisations such as the National Maritime Museum Cornwall and the Royal National Lifeboat Institution’s archive. He says: ‘Many of my stories are set in the wonderful county of Cornwall where truth can sometimes be stranger than fiction. It has always been a special place for me with its wild seas, rugged cliffs and bleak moors. The landscape has a raw, mystical magic.’
