My most recent novel is Under, a horror/mystery set on the London Underground. Both it and Signal Failure - a prelude short story available for free - are the result of a long-held fascination with the London Underground and its history.

As a native Londoner I have travelled on the Tube thousands of times, but it always feels like inhabiting a slightly different world to the city on the surface.

“Manor. I can remember that vividly, but not what the house actually looked like. Kind of a small mansion. Pillars either side of the front door. Bay windows. Just don’t ask me to draw you a picture. It was on the outskirts of some village in Wiltshire, but I can’t recall much about that either. You know the type… small, quaint, olde worlde. Arse-end of nowhere. But I’ll tell you what I do”
― David Wailing, Bang
