Some of my books are referred to as Gothic. The truth is I love intense and tortured characters and dark, unsettling landscapes, and I try to reproduce that in my work.

Hello, welcome to my website. I am the author of The Scent of Oranges, Estella and Sargasso. I’ve always been drawn to tortured, complex and intense characters, my all-time favourite being Heathcliff from Wuthering Heights. I write dark, mysterious and compelling stories and I write because it makes me happy. Most weekends you’ll find me by the sea.
