​

​

In 2018, I published my first psychological thriller, The Intruder, a story set in my home town of Faversham in south east England. 

​

It was followed by His Wife's Sister, the dark and twisty story of a woman found alive 19 years after she was abducted, and which was published in 2020.

 

She Knows was published in 2021.

​

I’m a journalist by profession, but also have headed up a communications department at a national cycling charity in the UK.

​

After all, when I’m not writing you can usually find me out on my bike!

​

I’m married to another former journalist, Amanda, who writes children’s pony books under her married name, and psychological thrillers under the penname, A J McDine.

 

In 2018, we formed our publishing company, Cherry Tree Publishing.

​

We live in Kent, in England, with our two teenage boys, Oliver and Thomas, and two cats.
