My first book, Catechism, is now available on Amazon and Goodreads. It is a paranormal thriller, set in the UK and the first book in a series about Nick Ballard, a psychic, who teams up with Detective Chief Inspector Kate Garvey to hunt serial killers.
Inside Catechism, there is also a link to my website and a free story to download in e-book format.

It’s pretty ironic that I write this kind of fiction, as I'm the first person to look away during a horror movie when the scary parts come on. This dates back to c

Great writing and imagination

Great writing. Grim read

As the title suggests, the writer is very adept at her craft. I found the subject matter difficult as it really was unrelenting in its violence and the constant undercurrent of menace running through the narrative. Apart from
