Welcome to my website!

Here you can find out about me and about my books Wildthorn and Whisper My Name. Suspenseful mysteries set in the Victorian period, they are aimed at teenage readers but adults have enjoyed them too.

You can follow my blog and read news of any events I’m involved in. If you’d like to keep up-to-date you can subscribe to my blog feed. You’ll find interviews with me further down this page and on the links page I’ve recommended some sites of interest to readers and writers.

If you want to get in touch with me, please email me with any questions or comments. I’d love to from you.
