Hi, so good to see you here.

 

 After shocks continue to plague Christchurch stretching the city’s residents nerves paper thin. Click here to read my Christchurch blog.

 

Jenseits des Flusses, the paperback edition of my historical novel, Cross the River to Home continues to sell well in Germany  as does  A secret Mind; German title Der weite Weg zurück.

 

My short story Das Frettchen (The Ferret) is included in Tierische Helden, an animal anthology collected by Iris Gradler and is presently available in hard cover through Der Club Bertelsmann. Authors of the calibre of Amy Tan, Jeffrey Deaver, Charlotte Link, Sebastian Fitzek, Iny Lorentz, Wolf Serno, Elke Heidenreich and Eva Voller have stories in Tierische Helden and I feel very privileged (gobsmacked actually) to have Das Frettchen included in this book.

 

At the moment, I’m having a holiday from historical novels and indulging myself by writing a YA fantasy, something I’ve wanted to do for a very long time. And I have to say I’m having a ball! But old habits die hard and the next book in my MoonShroud series will travel back to the 1800s in parts as Daliah—pronounced Dar-lee-ah, not Day-lee-ah as she testily informs Cosima, the friendly neighbourhood vamp — unlocks the secret to her time travelling genes. As yet, I’ve no idea when MoonShroud will be published. Hopefully, it won’t be too far away.

 

It occurred to me that old school friends might visit my website and not realise they know me from way back.  So for any of you out there who may have known me in the past, my maiden name was Halliday. If you have a spare moment it would be great to hear from you. 

 

If you’d like to contact me about my books or just to have a natter, I’d love to hear from you. To contact me click here . Or  click on Contact tab on side menu.

 

Warmest wishes
