Interview at The Mystery of Writing
Today I have been interviewed over at The Mystery of Writing. This is through the International Thriller Writers which I signed up for about a month ago. I should really have done so sooner. They feature all new releases in their magazine The Big Thrill which has a huge reach. They also conduct author interviews such as this one. So if you are writing thrillers or suspense and have a publishing deal do check them out! It costs nothing to join but the benefits are huge.
Anyway. Here is my intervie...

The Sleepers - Publication Day is here!
Today is launch day - The Sleepers is out in the world and has already been gathering some great reviews. It is still only 99p so grab yourself a copy before the price goes up!
As you can probably tell I've been having a lot of fun playing around in Canva to create some promotional graphics. This one tells you a bit more about what you can expect to find within those pages!
And now - off to celebrate with some bubbly! It's never too early - not on launch day!

The Sleepers - Cover Reveal and Pre-order Links
I'm delighted to be able to share the cover for The Sleepers and the pre-order links:
A time bomb is ticking—but what if that time bomb is you? A chilling novel of intrigue, terror, and one man and woman in a race against the clock . . .
Sylvie is running. Running from the memories of a terror attack in London she experienced as a child, an catastrophic event in which her brother died. Running from her abusive boyfriend. And running from a warning, given to her on a station platform in Nantes: So...

Review: HIVE by April Doyle
Near-future Britain. Climate change has led to food shortages and civil unrest. Pollinating insects are in steep decline. Commercial bee farmer Victor Martin travels around the farms of Kent with his hives to pollinate fruit trees and crops. Local research entomologist Dr Annie Abrams is devastated when she’s ordered to give up her captive bee colonies – her life’s work – to join forces with Victor and ensure a harvest. But the bees are dying. Their only hope seems to be an experimental alternat...

Review : The Prisoner of Paradise by Rob Samborn
Medieval and modern Venice collide in ways you simply wouldn’t expect. I’ll never view a Tintoretto in quite the same way again!
On a trip to Venice, Italy, an American comes to believe that his true soul mate is not his wife, but a woman whose soul has been trapped in a Renaissance painting for 450 years--along with thousands of others. Teetering on the brink of insanity and navigating present-day and Renaissance Venice, he discovers a secret society that taps an ancient power to extract and imp...

Meet the 22Debuts
As publication day for The Sleepers draws closer I've been looking at ways I can increase my profile and get my name out there. And one of the things I have done is to join this group - the 22Debuts. This is a large group of authors who are debuting in 2022, and as The Sleepers will be my first adult thriller, I qualify.
It's been great to network with other authors across the world, and in my chosen new genre. But I'm also discovering some really exciting books that I cant wait to read!
Do check...
