Today, Little Secrets and I visited the Prison Nursing Unlocked exhibition at the Royal College of Nursing– my new crime novel has a 1990s prison nurse at the heart of it, so it’s perfect timing. A really interesting exhibition and great to see some real prison-nurse items mentioned in my book.

Buy Little Secrets to get you through Halloween!

You’ll be too busy reading to notice the ghosts & ghouls. 😝

‘A darkly atmospheric and intricately layered mystery that blurs the lines between past and present, guilt and innocence.’

Welcome to the true-crime controversy that’s divided the media for the last twenty years.

To discover the truth, we need to delve back into the past...

I no longer have an agent (long story, not my fault nor my lovely ex-agent’s fault). Yet my crime novel was ready for publisher submissions. When the universe works against you, you have to dig your own path. Little Secrets is on its way. Time to set my prison book free myself!

I needed some distraction in the evenings after work. To give myself a break from crochet, I started an unused cross stitch kit I found in a drawer at home. It ‘may’ have a bookish theme. And it’s a big kit, so it will take a while…

I’ve just emailed a newly edited version of my prison book to my agent. I’ve read through this book 6 times in around 4 weeks & I don’t think I can change any more words now!
This is my latest crochet creation in progress. I’m not sure how much time I’ll have to crochet soon.

A missing architect. An interfaith charity project. Vandalism and online threats. Can racist slogans lead to kidnap – or even murder?

The books I read in 2024. It’s been a challenging year, saying a final goodbye to a very close family member, alongside a full-time day job & writing, so reading time has been limited. This doesn’t include books I worked on or books I couldn’t finish. Ten were ARCs – the rest were bought.

It’s been a quiet year for crochet. Only 6 small crochet projects. Not much time to spare, with the ups and downs of family life, a full-time day job and editing my prison book (to get an agent and, over the last month, for my agent). 3/6 have been gifts.

A few days ago, I decided to challenge myself to crochet a Chanukah jumper. Fortunately, it was only going to fit someone 12cm high (though I needed to crochet him too). And I’ve just finished him in time for tonight. Phew…

This year, Chanukah & Christmas coincide. This doesn’t happen very often.

It happened when I was plotting The Redeemer – that overlap is part of the plot.

Whatever you’re celebrating, I hope it’s a good one.

[No idea where this cartoon came from. I saw it a few years ago & it made me laugh.]

Looking for festive crime fiction? Love learning about different cultures?

If so, check out The Redeemer (set at Chanukah/Christmas time).
