If she becomes a national treasure in the process, so be it – it is a cross she is prepared to bear.Convinced that two unexplained deaths on her London patch are murders, rookie police officer Heather Prendergast’s unofficial investigation takes her to an isolated mill town on the Huddshire moors where she unearths a web of corruption that threatens her career – and her life.

Determined to become the greatest detective the world has known since the late, great, Sherlock Holmes, her aspirations are sadly not matched by her abilities. But despite this, she always gets a result… of sorts
The Days of our Birth
Peter and Sarah grow up living next door to one another in a small town in the east of Scotland. They also share the same birthday. He’s not so bright, but she’s formidably intelligent. She’s also autistic, and can’t understand why nobody except Peter likes her.
The days of our birth follows Peter and Sarah over twenty years. His journey into adulthood is fairly effortless; hers, more complex. It explores how two very different people can grow up as best friends, but never quite understand why they’re best friends and what they really feel about one another.
The book, filled with humour and poignancy, is an exploration of how people change, the things we could have said and done and, sometimes, how we can make things right again.
Peter and Sarah are finally forced to confront what they really feel, about themselves and about each other. For them, it is also about realising that love and friendship mean more than the sum of their differences.
Cyberdawn: Beginnings
What if every conspiracy theory you'd ever heard of was true... and it still wasn't enough.
Earth is entering a new age of peace. No weapons, countries ready to put down their armies, every home benefiting from megacorp generosity, but if you’re Black Jack Hannigan this sounds a bit like fattening up the calf before the slaughter.
He’s seen them, creatures straight out of mythology. Winged tigers, ghouls, werewolves, they all exist; all part of the same millennia-old conspiracy. The “People” are manipulating our society, readying us for sacrifice to their Masters unless Black Jack and his friends can bring their schemes to light.
It will take a new generation of weapons being developed by the icy Dr. Rebecca Winter to protect a defenseless world against these creatures, and even then it’s a race. For once the People have opened the Eye of the Apocalypse it’s all over. The Masters will consume the world, just as they have countless others before us.
The first of a new 5-book series that combines cyberpunk, magical fantasy, a touch of horror, and a whole lot of paranoia. For this is the story that defines the term "biblical-level conspiracy theory".
Crimson Red - Unconditional Love
The word love has been defined and confined by society to a certain spectrum, basically involving man and woman. This book dares society to look outside the spectrum at love just as it is - unconditional. No caste, creed, gender, religion or beliefs determining the same. As one would love a pet regardless of the gender, as one would love a newborn regardless, so does this book take the reader on a relationship considered taboo especially in Asian countries. Post reading this book, readers are expected to have an open mind to relationships and not succumb to society's bottle necked version of who should love whom or what sanctions a relationship. This book opens the dimension to another world where matter of the heart is concerned, taking the most commonly used word 'love' to the next level - a level where beliefs will crumble and minds will explode. This book will challenge you to step out of your cocoon, your garment and labels slapped on you by society from the time you were born and for many, even after they have gone to their graves. Prepare to be authentic to yourself. Not for the society or community but for yourself.

Murder on Family Grounds: A Mary Wandwalker Mystery
Who is killing off members of the Falconer family and why? Such is the challenge confronting highly skilled, extraordinarily intuitive Mary Wandwalker when she finds herself single, sixty and jobless. Long ago as an Oxford student with an unplanned pregnancy, Mary knew the Falconers as the family who refused to help when her fiancé, David Falconer died in a car crash. Now the baby boy she gave up for adoption is a policeman, George Jones, and he wants to meet her. Can Mary bring herself to confront her past? She must, for lost in her memory is a clue that could save her son's life.
Back in 1979, Mary wrote to the Falconers and was rejected. Now forty years later, key phrases from her letter appear in the faked suicide note of Perdita Falconer. Neither Perdita nor her killer had access to Mary's document. Too exact for coincidence, the link is the pseudonym of the drug dealer who supplied her fatal dose. He or she is known as "the Kestrel."
When Mary was romanced by David Falconer in the 1970s, "the Kestrel" was codename for a Russian spy entertained at Falconer House. Could the resurrection of the nom de plume be connected to Viktor Solokov, the Russian oligarch renting the Falconer estate with his beautiful wife, Anna? For the Falconers have dark secrets, some centuries old.
When George Jones's wife Caroline begs Mary to save her husband from treacherous Anna, and the murderous talons of the Kestrel, Mary must act.

If You Can't Walk, Try Flying
$3.99
I was born in February 1972, in Bucharest, Romania. Like any ordinary child, I played and laughed—I just couldn't walk. Both my brother and I were diagnosed with a congenital degenerative neuromuscular disease that could not be treated. We were home-schooled, with support from classmates and teachers who came from time to time to test us. I was in love with Romanian and English language and literature, I listened to lots of music, I read and wrote.
I have always been a self-taught person, thoroughly studying what I enjoyed and wanted to have for keeps!
I later became the Fan Club president of one of Romania's leading singers. My world began to open up and I began to use the talents I thus found out I had.
In 2008 I chose to live in another country, and during the COVID-19 pandemic period, I wrote this book.
"If You Can't Walk, Try Flying" is a book about my life in Romania, dedicated to those who wake up in the morning without hope, without the willpower to try harder and enjoy what life has to offer!
Learn to grow wings—each of us is born to fly!
