about me

Full of Sin was published in November by Wild Wolf Publishing. It's had rave reviews from Sophie Hannah, Matt Hilton, Karen Campbell, James Becker, Robert Ellis, Thomas Perry and Cathy Kelly, as well as Hertfordshire Life magazine and Waterstone's Uxbridge. If you read it in the past, I'd love to hear what you think of it if you're able to read it in book form. It's available from all online outlets and book shops.

Please join the Facebook page of Full of Sin, my debut novel that's had rave reviews from Sophie Hannah, Matt Hilton, Karen Campbell and James Becker. They call it "shocking", "thought-provoking" and "dark". I'd love to hear what you think...
