London, 1996.

Alexandra Young, seventeen years old, disappears at a busy Tube station. Days later, the Underground becomes a citywide haunting—whispers in tunnels, cold spots on platforms, and a surge of deadly accidents that bring the network to a standstill.

Detective Inspector Ian Megevand has seen the unnatural before. When Alexandra’s reappears, desperate for justice, he and his partner, Sergeant James Thatcher, are pulled into a case that defies logic—and a manhunt that refuses to stay among the living.

As the suspects responsible stay one step ahead, thousands of restless spirits rise through London’s arteries. To stop the chaos, Megevand must face his own past and a truth that could cost him his sanity.

The Girl on the Tube is a dark, heart-pounding thriller where crime, grief, and the supernatural collide beneath the city—because some secrets refuse to stay buried.

More about the story

Beneath London’s streets lies a world most commuters never see—dark service tunnels, abandoned platforms, sealed stations untouched since the Blitz. It is here the ghosts gather.

As Megevand hunts those who think they’ve escaped justice, the city turns against trains stall, shadows move, accidents spike, and the dead begin to whisper across the network.

Every hour the haunting grows.
Every hour, more victims join the Underground’s chorus.
And every track leads back to a secret someone would kill to keep buried.
Because in London’s depths, the past isn’t dead—it’s waiting.

When I’m not writing, I’m devouring books like they owe me money — about one every week or so.

Stephen King, Matthew Reilly, Dean Koontz, LJ Ross, early-day Clive Cussler, James Patterson, and Lee Child have all shaped my imagination or inspired me to keep writing.

I snowboard whenever life allows (not often enough), and when Bali calls, you’ll find me on a sun-lounger debating life’s mysteries with my wife — such as whether extra-crispy bacon qualifies as a legitimate personality trait. I love cooking, especially on a barbecue.

A whole world awaits, and I fully intend to explore it — one adventure, one story, one questionable life decision at a time.
