Turns out the Brits were at the same carry on in Kenya as they were in the north of Ireland.

It’s great on collective & individual sacrifices & traumas incurred for freedom — & what that freedom from violence looks like once the war is over. (Spoiler alert: it’s mental health crisis xxx)

I’ve read a handful of (in my opinion) perfect books this year & this is one of them. Sneaking right in at the end of the year. Short & brutal. Brilliant. Can’t believe it’s a debut!

Here we go! My debut novel Exile will be published by John Murray Press in May 2024. Over the moon.

It’s about homesickness, female friendship & the life-changing effects of sexual violence.

Thanks to my agent Eleanor Birne & my editor Becky Walsh for their belief in Exile.
