Today I received an e-mail from a stranger keen to tell me a story about my new book Shadowchild.

The lady in question and her brother took a walk to the village shop in Feckenham and without any prior knowledge of my work, her brother purchased it, largely due to the fact it was based in the village.

They quickly learned that the book is about the Watson family and the father of the family is called Simon Watson (which happens to be her brother's name)

Spooky! lol

It was lovely that she took time out from her day to share with me, and after a little e-mail back and forth it turns out we know a great deal of the same people.

It helped to brighten my day! Thanks for reading :-)
