'The Welsh Marches is an evocative place. Full of mystery, history, and tiny old houses, it leads easily into Wales - a perfect place to write and to set romantic novels with mysteries and crimes embedded in them.'
This is how Wilma summarises the inspiration for her four novels in the Welsh Marches series and the forty-nine short stories which follow and make up Sevens, Stories to Commute By.
Luckily for her, she was able to escape to this scenic area and begin to write. It is not a gift that many people are given, but with a tiny cottage of her own, an accompanying cottage garden and a husband who is handy with a computer and a coffee pot, the opportunity was too good to ignore.

The Welsh Marches
|
Mary Mitchell meets her neighbour Tim Spencer when, dressed only in a fluffy pink towel, he slides out of his shower and stops at her feet. It is the beginning of a fast paced adventure for them both.
Mary has just moved into a new, but very old house, and discovers that it has a secret. Uncovering the secret, leads Mary into the history of her house, and she soon discovers that all is not what it seems. Murder and a centuries old feud take Mary from the past into the present where all has not yet been resolved.
Tim has escaped from yet another relationship in which he had no investment, to a quiet house in the country. He is a gifted structural engineer who has taken on a new job that he has little clue how to do. Almost immediately he finds that his confidence is being undermined and his reputation slowly destroyed. Struggling to understand what is going on, he discovers a large scale fraud involving dangerous people very close to him.
Together, he and Mary work to save his career and her sanity but find that they are being drawn into the past and into modern international crime. In so doing they must also face their relationship with each other. This is far from straightforward as a hostile daughter, a manipulating ex-husband, and an old girl friend appear at the worst of times to complicate whatever they may feel for each other.
This is the first in the Welsh Marches series. The second Secrets Lies and Legacies continues the story of Tim and Mary.
A third, Red Snow describes the life of a Morse Code operator sent to Moscow in 1942. The work soon draws him into situations which could affect the security of Britain.
The fourth book, The Word Garden, takes place in the 1970s, a time of great social change. Gordon and Margaret's marriage is complicated indeed and becomes more so with outside influences.
