Inspiratiion and coincidence - 'Longest shadows reach'


A huge stroke of luck kick-started ‘Longest shadows reach; the second book in the Love triangles with murder’ series.

A part-remembered house, seen from the top deck of the school bus. Turrets and chimneys, emerging from a sea of tree-tops. One day it disappeared and there were times I thought I might’ve dreamt it. I Googled it. Struck lucky. Found a photo of it on Flickr. It looked like the perfect place for a murder.

Luckier still – pure serendipity –  the photo had been taken by someone I’d sat next to in primary school. He was kind enough to give me permission to use it on the cover.
Available to buy from mid-September
