Please tell us about the books you’ll be bringing to the Book Fair.
I’ll be bringing three of my books to the book fair, my debut novel, Echoes, and the first two books in the DI Winter Meadows series.
Echoes: Nightmares and ghostly visions lead to a 60 year old
mystery. Do you believe in ghosts?
The Silent Quarry:
A missing woman, an unsolved murder, and
a village steeped in secrets.
Frozen Minds: Two
murders and the next victim chosen, Bethesda house is no longer a safe haven.
Which genres do they
belong to?
Crime/Mystery
What are the
characters and plots like?
DI Winter Meadows is the central character in my books, born
on a commune and raised by hippy parents he is charismatic, intuitive, and has
an uncanny gift for finding the truth. The plots are suspenseful with a mix of ‘whodunit’
and ‘police procedure’. There is some humour as well as darker elements.
Tell us about your
newest book.
My latest release is Frozen
Minds and the second in the DI Meadows series. The book centres on a murder in Bethesda
house, a home for adults with leaning difficulties. Suspicion falls on the
residents and the case proves challenging, for Meadows and his team, when the
only witnesses have complex personalities and a unique view of the world. When
a second murder occurs it’s clear that Bethesda is no longer a safe haven.
Which of your books
are you’re most proud of, and why?
The book I’m most proud of is The Silent Quarry. This was my
first attempt at writing a crime novel.
What is the best
thing that has been said about your books?
I’m always thrilled when someone asks me when the next book
is being released.
Why did you decide to
come to the Llandeilo Book Fair?
As this is a local event I’m am delighted that I’ve been
invited to attend There is a varied and
full programme and I’m excited to get
the chance to meet up with the other participating authors and readers.
Do you have a special
connection to Wales?
I have lived in Wales all my life. It’s a place I am proud
to call home.
What is your personal
background?
I was born in Cardiff and moved to Brynaman as a young
child. After leaving school I worked as a legal clerk for several years before
leaving to raise my two daughters. I returned to education when my girls
started school, studying philosophy, sociology, and accountancy. I now work as
a finance director for a project management company. My dream is to write full
time and a cottage by the sea would be nice!
Who are your
favourite authors?
Among my favourites
are Sharon Bolton, Harlan Coben, Linwood Barclay, and R D Wingfield.
Please share your social media links and buy links to your
books.
