I DARE YOU - blurb!

I'm delighted to share the blurb of my fifth psychological thriller with you!

I DARE YOU publishes in ebook and paperback on 12th December 2019 and I couldn't be more excited! 

This is my second book out this year so it seems like yesterday I was telling you about The Missing Wife! 

I hope you will enjoy this next twisty, chilling offering...

I DARE YOU ...

In this game, no one wins…

Mapledon, 1989
Two little girls were out playing. One dared the other to knock on a neighbour’s front door and run away. But this was a game that had deadly consequences – only one girl returned home that evening.

The ten-year-old told police what she saw: a man, village loner Bill ‘Creepy’ Cawley, dragged her friend into an old red pick-up truck and disappeared.

No body was found, but her testimony sent him to prison for murder.

An open and shut case, the right man behind bars.

A village that could sleep safe once again.

Now…
Anna thought she had left Mapledon and her nightmares behind, but a distraught phone call brings her back to face her past.

Thirty years ago, someone lied.

Thirty years ago, the man convicted wasn’t the only guilty party…

And now he’s out, he is looking for revenge. The question is, who will he start with?

What do you think?

Watch this space for the cover reveal!

Writing highlights 2017

My writing highlights of 2017 included the publication of my second psychological thriller, BAD SISTER. 

I'd spent a long time while writing it worrying about 'Second Book Syndrome' - then as it went out into the world in October, I held my breath awaiting the response from bloggers, reviewers and readers.

Imagine my delight then, when esteemed blogger and reviewer, Kaisha Holloway (The Writing Garnet) presented me with this amazing award!

I was utterly thrilled! And it didn't stop there.  

I've had some truly amazing reviews for Bad Sister - I've been floored by the responses from readers and I'm grateful to every one of them for buying, reading and reviewing!

Not only that, but Bad Sister made some people's lists of 'Top Books in 2017' which is fantastic. 

I'm proud to be in Kaisha's fabulous list of great books that she read in 2017 (and she read a LOT!)

Thanks for this great banner, Kaisha!

In the UK you can currently get BAD SISTER on ebook for just 99p - click HERE 

The paperback is available in Asda, Tesco, some Waterstones and Amazon.

I have more highlights from 2017 - but will save for another post!

Celebrate EVERYTHING

I woke up this morning to the amazing sight of being NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER! 

The lovely readers in Canada had enabled SAVING SOPHIE to get to no.1

And, thankfully I took this screenshot, because it was fleeting! One hour, in fact.

I would've missed it if I'd got out of bed a bit later...

What an emotional ride this writing lark is! 

So, my writer friends, enjoy each and every achievement - it might be a 'blink and you'll miss it' moment, but every bit is worth celebrating :) 

Who knows, SAVING SOPHIE might be back at number one in another hour, but for now, she sits at number two. A wonderful achievement, and I'm so grateful to be able to have my novel out there for people to read.
