About the author

Born and raised in London, loved reading but deeply lazy about writing at school, preferring drama. A brief acting career, then moved into the production side at the BBC's radio drama department - later at London's Capital Radio, by which time the writing "switch" had been flicked on. Spent as much time as possible travelling in the US, working and writing. First novel, IN LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP published in 1986 after five years of writing. Wrote sagas with big dramatic finishes in the early days, and then, as the body count rose, made the move into psychological suspense and thrillers. Last book LAST RUN soon out in trade paperback, and the latest (and 20th) -RALPH'S CHILDREN - out soon in hardcover.
Living in London with husband Jonathan, and dog Poppy.

Reviews

[Thessia]

nach dem ich von dem ersten Teil dieser Reihe wirklich super begeistert war, wollte ich sofort weiterlesen, jedoch war dieser Teil nicht wirklich toll oder gut.
Fast alle Protagonisten waren super nervig. Hat nicht so viel Spaß gemacht wie der erste Teil, werde aber trotzdem die reihe nach und nach weiterlesen.

everybody, not just the killer, was having nutty reactions and making nutty decisions. no more from this author.

[Byron Washington]

This lady is a very talented writer. The mystery/suspense genre is my fave and she has curved me twice!!! I am VERY impressed with how her mind works. I HIGHLY recommend her works.

Very gripping but again far fetched and a bit "over the top". One of a detective series.
