News & Events

I’m delighted to be taking part in this crime festival by sea in gorgeous Lyme Regis. I’ll be talking about the toxic friendships at the heart of Fragile (and paddling in the sea, I hope!). Do join us if you can.

Full programme and tickets here.

I really enjoyed recording this interview about Marnie Rome, Fragile and What Comes Next. Here’s a tiny teaser. The full interview lasts an hour and will be posted on 4 July here.

I’m thrilled to announce that we have a first date for Ledburied: an evening of crime events in my new home town of Ledbury in Herefordshire.

We’re starting with an evening on Thursday 16 June where I’ll be chatting with Chris Ewan and Fiona Cummins about dark thrillers and what makes us tick.

Tickets are FREE but do register with Ledbury Books and Maps, my local independent bookshop who are co-hosting Ledburied.

Look out for more exciting guests coming soon!

Full details here.

It’s May, my favourite month!

To celebrate, Tastes Like Fear, the third book in my Marnie Rome series and longlisted for Theakstons Crime Novel of the Year, is 99p in the Kindle Monthly Deal.

If you’ve read Tastes Like Fear, let me know what you think. It’s one of my scariest books, and I got to fulfil a lifelong ambition to set a story in Battersea Power Station …

I’m excited to be going to Wales in April for this festival which also features Mark Billingham, Kate Ellis, Carys Davies and Matthew Hall.

Tickets are on sale here.

I’m supporting this crucial campaign to raise funds for Ukraine. Every penny raised will go to British Ukranian Aid.

I’m offering a mini mentoring session for aspiring crime and thriller writers. I’ll read your synopsis and the first 5,000 words of your novel, providing a 500 word report and 30 minute Zoom session.

The auction is now open and you can bid here. Please do share with your writer friends. Thank you.
