I write women's fiction, crime and fantasy, with an interest in folk and superstitious beliefs. Present Series: Women's fiction stories told between the present day and the war, based on the wilds of Dartmoor. As the war started, women took over traditional male jobs as well as dealt with food shortages, long and dangerous working hours and the constant threat of losing loved ones. There are ten books, six set on a fictional island off the Cornish peninsula, and four (so far) set on the wild landscape of Dartmoor. A Baby's Bones asked the reader: is a dark house haunted by the dreadful violence committed there in the past, or is there a scientific explanation that triggers the darkness in the people who are working there? A Shroud of Leaves asks why a young girl is buried in a pile of leaves on an estate that seems haunted by the disappearance of another young girl in the past. I wrote The Secrets of Life and Death series out of a love of magic and fantasy. I tried to bring a single element of fantasy into the real world and it seeped in all directions. Dr John Dee believed sorcery was possible - it was his idea of technology. I just wondered ... what if he was right? What if a child's life could be saved by magic when medicine fails? Then I had to go back and follow Jackdaw Hammond as she fights for the life of a teenager who, like Jack, lives on borrowed time.
