Murder, She Wrote was a TV series that lasted for twelve seasons between 1984 and 1996. In the UK, four books were published by Star Books and at least one by Sphere Books (a reprint of a US edition). Additionally, at least three books were published by Berkley Boulevard Books in the US featuring short stories by multiple authors, hence the title 'Murder They Wrote'.

Worldwide, new novels are still being published to the present day with about two new books every year. These are published by the Penguin Group (Signet Books imprint until April 2007, Obsidian Mystery Books imprint 2007 - 2015 and Berkley Books 2016 onwards). This gallery will be updated as and when I acquire the books.
