about this author
Adventure, mystery and heroes have always fascinated and thrilled me. That, and my love of the sea has led me to create what has been called a completely new genre of crime fiction -the marine mystery. My fire-fighting husband and his Portsmouth watch have also been influential in creating my brave earthy characters like the flawed but ruggedly seductive detective, DI Andy Horton whose patch is Portsmouth CID. They were also the inspiration behind my fast-paced, controversial thriller, In Cold Daylight based on the tragic true story of fire fighters killed in the line of duty, and which was shortlsted for the World Book Day Prize 2008. In for the Kill is a fast-paced action-packed thriller inspired by the writing of Robert Goddard.
