Today, excited and proud to announce the publication of MISTLE CHILD, book two in my Undertaken Trilogy.
MISTLE CHILD is my twelfth book and with its publication I celebrate a decade in mainstream publishing with major houses.
I've posted some of the images that both inspired the book and served as research on my website:

“In life, a person will come and go from many homes. We may leave a house, a town, a room, but that does not mean those places leave us. Once entered, we never entirely depart the homes we make for ourselves in the world. They follow us, like shadows, until we come upon them again, waiting for us in the mist.”
