Extract from my new novel TEEN ANGELS .
Meanwhile in Hells nightclub-

Jazz tried to scoff but faltered. Her gaze flicked to the DJ, then to the shadows where Mark E. Smith was holding court with a swarm of regretful ex-roadies.

“We are wasting our best material in here,” she muttered.

Meet Jazz — your new sarcastic, eye-rolling best friend who stomps her way into Heaven in Doc Martens, blasting her Goth playlist.
From my new novel TEEN ANGELS, Jazz is a force of nature fueled by hairspray and attitude — never afraid to go where other angels wouldn’t dare to tread . #80sMusic

TEEN ANGELS- my new novel set in the mid 80s Goth scene in Leeds -
“That night, Bela Lugosi’s Dead didn’t loop like a song. It looped like a bad thought you can’t switch off “

“ Teen Angels ” is a darkly funny, emotionally sharp novel about two rebellious Northern sisters who die young and wake up somewhere in the afterlife .Set in the mid-80s and soaked in post-punk, hairspray , and grief, it blends magical realism with social realism .
