"I have always liked writing. When I was eleven years old, I won first prize in the Scottish Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals essay competition - and I've never really stopped.”

The Marmalade Years, published in October 2025, is a departure from crime fiction. Colin Drake, a male charge nurse whose chaotic and at times frankly bizarre homelife is driving him to despair. It is little wonder that he starts getting headaches. These are only the start of his troubles! Could a journey to a remote part of Wales offer any solace? It is a land that time has forgotten - or has it? Things are not all they seem...
“A big thank you to all who have helped and encouraged me. Enjoy!"
