Thrilled to unveil the fabulous cover that Jessica Bell Design has created for my upcoming book. It's been longer that I wanted, but DI Nathan Quarrel #3 will be out in paperback and Kindle ebook in early July. Watch this space for updates in the coming weeks!

Victoria is right, and not just because she wrote it - buy this book! You won’t be able to put it down!
Final post before I take a break over the weekend to celebrate Little Secrets being shortlisted for the CWA Whodunnit Dagger. I still can’t believe it’s true. I didn’t think it would be possible as a self-published author. PS - please buy my book! I have no marketing budget. πŸ˜‚
