Career

Radiance

Riley Bloom crossed the bridge into the afterlife following a car crash - with her parents and her beloved dog, Buttercup. [1] The afterlife is situated in - Here & Now. [2] And it turns out that the afterlife is not just an eternity of leisure. [3] Riley meets The Council where she is assigned a job as a Soul Catcher, with the weird but maybe cute boy as her guide whose name is Bodhi. [4] Her first assignment will take her back to earth, to everything she's left behind - where she must find the Radiant Boy, a ten-year-old, long - lost spirit in the haunting castles of England for centuries, who doesn't want to move on. [5]

Elm Tree Road

After being driven from home by their brutal father, the Willitt sisters, Mattie, Nell and Renie, find themselves facing greater heartache in the wider world. [6] Nell has left home to be with her lover, Cliff, fearing what reprisals might come from marrying against her father’s wishes. [7]

After parting ways with Mattie the couple takes the youngest sister Renie and head for Lancashire. [8] However, Nell’s happiness is short-lived; her marriage suffering as Cliff resents his job and the fact that though Nell has given him a daughter, she seems unable to conceive another child. [9] When Renie leaves for London, Nell feels desperately alone. [10] Then tragedy strikes, and Nell, mad with grief, runs away in the hope of being reunited with her two sisters. [11] While wandering the English countryside, a gipsy palm-reader tells Nell she will still find her destiny, under ‘three big trees on a hill’. [12]

Her luck seems to change when she meets Gil, a farmer and a gentleman who she can’t help but feel drawn to. [13] Could the trees on his land be a sign, or is Nell too damaged by her past to let herself love again? [14]

The Doll's House

The book centres on the discovery of a dead pre-transition male-to-female transgender individual on a council housing estate in Birmingham. [15] The inside of the house is like a doll's house with pink ribbons and pink walls, stuffed toys and the table set for a tea party DI Phil Brennan on the Major Incident Squad begins investigating the puzzling case. [16]

Author Mark Billingham described the book as 'seriously scary'. [17] In Female First the reviewer wrote 'This book was full of psychopaths, gory murder scenes and scandal and I loved it. [18] I ended up goading myself to read “just a few more pages” all the way through'. [19] In Mystery Tribune the bok was 'recommended for ones looking for psychological thrillers' while the book was also reviewed in Publishers Weekly. [20]

The Riddle of the River

Cambridge, 1898. [21] When the unidentified body of a young woman is found floating in the River Cam, journalist Patrick O’Sullivan calls on one woman he is sure will solve the mystery: Mrs Vanessa Weatherburn. [22] Vanessa agrees to take up the challenge, but, with a victim as well as a murderer to identify, she knows it will be no easy task. [23]

Luckily, help is at hand; aided by her friends at Heffer’s bookshop and the cream of Cambridge’s academic community, Vanessa goes undercover to continue her investigation. [24] Employing all her skills to reel in the killer, Vanessa can only hope it will be enough to solve the riddle of the river. [25]
