My journey as a writer began years ago, kindled by an early fascination with English literature and language, a passion ignited during my GCSE studies. It was the timeless narrative of 'Of Mice and Men' that first captured my imagination, leading me down a path forever intertwined with storytelling.
As life unfolded, I explored various passions and embraced the responsibilities of adulthood. I navigated through life's complexities, finding joy and fulfilment in raising two wonderful sons. Now, as they step into their journeys, I've been graced with the opportunity to revisit my first love: writing.
My ambition is to craft immersive worlds that readers can lose themselves in, worlds where the lines between the supernatural, crime thrillers, and horror blur into an irresistible tapestry of intrigue and character-driven narratives. "Secrets in the Bones," my fourth novel, marks a significant milestone in my writing career. It represents not just another story but a venture outside my comfort zone, being the first work I've presented to agents and publishers.
With a treasure trove of stories waiting to be told, my journey as an author is far from over. I am currently immersed in writing "The Cursed Knights - the Book of the Dead," a foray deeper into the horror genre. Each new story is an adventure, an opportunity to explore the uncharted realms of imagination, and a chance to connect with readers who share my love for the mysterious and the macabre.

The Darkness of Thorne House
Book 1 of the Maplewood Horrors Series
EVIL COMES HOME
The past never stays buried in the shadowed town of Maplewood, Maine. Thirty years ago, the Mayfield coven of witches and warlocks ruled with unrelenting darkness, their grip on the town broken only by a brutal uprising that left the coven dead—or so the townsfolk believed. But Thorne House, their lair of unspeakable horrors, has been waiting. And now, its time has come.
The Rickman family arrives in Maplewood seeking a fresh start, but the moment they step into Thorne House, their sanctuary becomes a nightmare. The twins, Jenny and Nicholas, are about to turn sixteen—a milestone that will awaken supernatural gifts tied to a legacy they never knew existed. But their gifts are not a blessing; they are the key to Thorne House's sinister plan. The house stirs, feeding on Jenny and preparing for the return of the Mayfield coven, and whispers of the "Ferryman" taking souls as payment for resurrection grow louder.
As death strikes Maplewood with the gruesome murder of Kirsty Hollings, the town is thrown into chaos. Long-buried secrets slowly slither to the surface, and whispers of darkness consume the community. The Rickmans quickly realise they are at the centre of an unfolding nightmare, with Jenny and Nicholas' awakening powers tying them to the horrors of the house. Yet, they are not alone. Four brave teens join the twins, forming an unlikely alliance against the growing evil. Together, they must uncover the truth about the house, the Ferryman, and the terrifying agenda threatening their town.
Guided by their mysterious grandmother, Nanna Rickman—whose connection to the supernatural runs deeper than she admits—the twins face a horrifying realisation: their family's past is far darker than they ever imagined. Hints of their true lineage, the name Ashborne, and a destiny entwined with witches and warlocks emerge. But those truths remain shrouded, a mystery to be unravelled in battles yet to come.
As the house's hunger grows, the teens must rise to confront its evil or risk the town falling to the darkness that has waited decades to return. The fate of Maplewood—and the battle between light and shadow—rests in their hands.
"The Darkness of Thorne House" is the gripping first instalment in The Maplewood Horrors Series, blending supernatural suspense, chilling secrets, and a battle for survival. Perfect for Stephen King and Shirley Jackson fans, this haunting novel introduces a saga of terror, courage, and the enduring fight against evil.
The house is awake. The Ferryman is waiting. And the Rickman twins are just the beginning.
