I am so thrilled to see Wrong Tracks has been reviewed in the Daily Telegraph. My first book review in a national!

I am working on an upper MG murder mystery set in 1904 inspired by early motorcars and a race from Lancashire to Yorkshire inspired by real life motorists and early automobile history. I am having a lot of fun researching! I hope it finds a home! #ukteenchat #WrongTracks

This is the Waverley engine! Prudence, the other main character, would have loved it! #WrongTracks #ukteenchat

So much! I am not a science expert! I had to learn all about steam, how the engines worked, and get my head round a very confusing timeline. Rocket also had to get from Newcastle to Liverpool - and that took some puzzling over, but the steamer scene gave me an excuse to go on one! #ukteenchat

I think you can see how excited I was to see the Rocket replica running @locomotionshd.bsky.social in Shildon It is a brilliant museum and I got to see the real Rocket, that is the star of my book, there too! #UKteenchat #WrongTracks

My next book Wrong Tracks, is inspired by the Rainhill Trials and the Liverpool & Manchester Railway. It was prompted by Edward Entwistle a 15-year-old lad from Tyldesley who claimed he drove Rocket on opening day in 1830! Here he years later when he became a media sensation! #railway200 #Rocket200
