I trained as a nurse and have a Master’s in Creative Writing from Birkbeck College, University of London.
I have had four short stories published. Farrukh and the Matchmaker made the longlist for the BBC Short Story Award 2021. The Chrysalis was awarded a Pushcart Prize nomination in 2021.
I read for established authors and was part of the Mechanics’ Institute Review Short Story Anthology editorial team in 2018.
I have written two middle-grade historical thrillers – Winter’s Bite and Fever Quest – and two commercial fiction novels.
“I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Isabella is a really likeable character, and the plot races along at a swift pace, with plenty of twists and turns along the way. The supporting cast of characters are very vivid and colourful. The author really manages to bring to life the world of 1820's India and England. I was sad to reach the end and would love to read more about Isabella's adventures.”
