My Books

I write the kinds of stories I want to read. In fact, that’s how my first novel, Seventh Son (see below), started: I just told myself the story that I liked. When I was done, to my surprise I found that other people liked it too!

My stories are about ordinary people who – spoiler alert! – find that they aren’t so ordinary after all, and that there is a place for them with people who value them exactly for who they are.

Don’t we all, deep down, want to find that kind of home? Come along with Catriona, Nicky, Liz, Martin Millerson, and many others, as they find the place where they belong.
