My new novel On Romford Road is now published.

The story spans a whole century of love, intrigue, fear and vicious rivalry between two East London families as each takes its own path from poverty to prosperity.

“Dynamic, optimistic, humane and romantic, this is fiction at its most engaging.” - Amanda Craig

​ 

The Unknown Mrs Rosen (2020): “A remarkable novel... engaging and beautifully written... encompassing war, love, family, friendship and old age.” - Emma Klein.

​

The Slave (2013): “Satisfying and deeply unsettling, The Slave is part urban thriller, part examination of how we treat our fellow humans, and as a bonus, is blessed with a fantastic soundtrack.” - Robert Ryan.

​

Love (2015, 2024): “A feast for the senses... packs a very heady hit.” – Laurence Phillips.

​
