When your best friend goes missing… #books
It was a dilemma for Josiane, my main character in Missing, Rose Malone, and it’s one I’m glad I’ve never encountered personally. She and Rose had grown up neighbours, and they’d always been friends, even though Josiane was a few years older. She knew Rose – didn’t she? And yet… Community carer Rose is missing.…

New book! #comingsoon #books
It’s been a while. My last brand new suspense thriller came out in December 2022, and since then, a combination of working on feel-good projects and re-releases has kept me pretty occupied. But now, at last, suspense number thirteen is ready to go, and here it is: Missing, Rose Malone. The kindle version will be…

New Year, New Book, and a Freebie…
Hello 2026! What should we wish for? Peace and good health are probably top of everyone’s list, so let’s hope hard for those in the coming year.

First up is The Attic Room, originally published in 2015. The pre-order is running already,…

2022… The best of times and the worst of times #NewYear
If anything taught us that nothing lasts forever, it was 2022. The moment we got used to the covid numbers going down, up they went again. As soon as we were accustomed to calling one person ‘the prime minister’, someone else was moving into 10 Downing Street. We won’t even mention Twitter. And the Queen,…

Mixed news… #books
This is the blog post that should have gone out last week, after the scheduled release of my new book The Un-Family on the 14th. The bad news is, due to an Amazon glitch (they needed proof – twice – that Hobeck Books had the right to publish), the ebook wasn’t up on Amazon until…

Book news! #amwriting #crimefiction
About ten days ago, a contract arrived in N.E. Switzerland. I signed, and sent it back to crime fiction publisher Hobeck Books, where it arrived on Friday. So now it’s official – book twelve is on the way, and I’m thrilled to have another Hobeck book in my collection. We’ve been doing structural edits for…

Classic Comfort Reads… with Louise Mangos
The idea behind the Classic Comfort posts is that each featured writer chooses a favourite title from the classics – we’ll define ‘classic’ as pre-1940 – and a favourite comfort read, a book they always return to, for whatever reasons. As third book in each post, we’ll have one by the writer. This week, we…
