I adore the romanticism of the fairy-tale. Mix that with a dash of history and mystery and voila! we have a story. Inspired by the great classic writers: Daphne du Maurier, the Brontes, Jane Austen and Victoria Holt, I’m brewing my own blend of gothic tale…

What inspires me? Castles, old manor houses, wild English gardens, exotic cultures, far-off places, dusty bookstores, anything antique, wandering down a souq in Istanbul, indulging the senses on the Almafi coast, exploring a ruin…ok, you get the picture.

Please join me as I embark on a new mystery series!
