Welcome Note

I live in London and I write dark, psychological thrillers with a strong dash of mysticism and the paranormal. My latest novel, Keeper of Light and Dust, is a story about chi, martial arts, quantum physics and tattoos and is now available in paperback.  My fourth book, Season of the Witch, is a modern gothic thriller about techgnosis and the Art of Memory and won the World Book Day:  Book to Talk About Award 2009.

Author Bio

I have lived in South Africa, New York City and London. Previous jobs include selling shoes, teaching Afrikaans at a South African university and moonlighting as a project coordinator in the publishing department of a public television station in New York City. I now write full-time.
