I’m the proud daughter of a WAAF RAF Officer. I have always loved writing stories about everyday women who do extraordinary things. Not just the rare ‘purple unicorns,’ but the generations of women who quietly stepped up, did what needed to be done, and so often went unrecognised.

Wings Unseen is my first novel, inspired by true events and my mother’s own service during the Second World War. It is both a tribute and a call to remember the 250,000 women who made up a quarter of the Royal Air Force ground crew, fighting for their country at its hour of greatest need.

My hope is that this story will inspire you to go looking for the hidden heroines in your own family tree, to bring their remarkable stories back into the light.

Set on a forbidding sub antarctic island, this apocalyptic novel has it all. Mystery, love, grief, mysticism, family and adventure. I don't know how the author managed to pull all of this together, and with such sensitive and poetic writing. Wow. ...more

I really enjoy historical fiction, so long as it is well written and very well researched. The Frozen River did not disappoint. The story of a midwife in the USA in the 1700s, I was worried that it would be too brutal on the life of women at the time ...more

The same stories are told over and over, repeated by different characters, or to different characters, or with a new detail added. But it still gets four stars because the writing is, at times, achingly beautiful.

A very creepy haunting novel that preys on our fears our weaknesses and fears. The century long disconnect between when it was written and when I read it was an issue because I did not fully understand the subject and societal stresses off the day. T ...more
