My historical fantasy novel, Circle of Shadows will be published in October 2025. It can currently be preordered with a 25 percent discount with Waterstones. A young woman becomes an occult detective in Edwardian Britain. Think Sherlock Holmes with a supernatural vibe

'Ghilli Dhu' is a male faerie living in Scottish forests where birch trees grow in abundance, camouflaging himself in leaves and moss, and only coming out at night. He comes to the aid of lost children, but is wrathful with other trespassers. #faeriefriday #folklore #Scotland

Looking back, it seems inevitable that I would become a fantasy writer, right from when I read my first book, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. My big sister and I were in our back garden.
