I am the author of a Culture Crime Series that includes GOLDEN ICON, MASTERPIECE, BOOK OF HOURS and STOLEN SCRIPT. I have also published a love story ELLIE BRAVO and two books of short stories: BEDTIME READS and RED SHOES. My background is in travel and tourism and I use my experiences of living and travelling abroad and knowledge of locations as an integral part of scenes in my novels. I have a passion for history and cultural heritage. I love to see people maintain deep-rooted traditions. Identity is an important part of us all and I believe understanding the lives of others creates respect and unity in our society. My cultural crime series allows me to develop characters and to explore right and wrong whilst writing about our world heritage, art and ethnicity. Please read my blog for more information on my books and the research for my novels. I am currently working on my next novel in the Cultural Crime Series.
