Hello - both to familiar friends and new readers - and welcome to my brand new website. Here, you can keep up with all the latest news about my novels, non-fiction, short stories & plays, as well as upcoming events both in the UK and further afield. I hope you have a great time exploring the site and, if you do, we'd love to hear from you.

My new novel The Burning Chambers - the first in my new series of historical novels spanning three hundred years of Huguenot history - is out now (information about other editions & translations is here too). I do hope you enjoy it.

For now, thanks to the brilliant team at Pan Macmillan UK and worldwide, as well as to all the booksellers and librarians for their unstinting support.
