Cover reveal for my new book!
I couldn't be more excited to share the cover for my new book with you!
It's set in a creepy farmhouse in Snowdonia, North Wales... Here's the blurb:
‘You have an older sister, she ran away years ago when you were born. We thought she had died. But—’ Eva’s stepmother’s voice trembled, ‘she’s just turned up alive.’
The phone rings. What Eva doesn’t realise is that the call will signal the end of what she knows to be true. The end of trusting her family. And the end of everything keeping her safe...
The phone call is from a hospital hundreds of miles away. A woman has been admitted with a serious head injury, saying she’s Eva’s older sister. A sister Eva never knew she had. Whose name – Nancy – has never once been mentioned by her parents.
It seems impossible. Could the two people who brought Eva up have lied to her for her whole life? With her dad’s memory fading and her beloved stepmother unable to leave him, when the hospital insist a family member must come to collect Nancy, Eva realises that she’s the only person who can go.
Perhaps at long last this is someone who can give her some answers though. About what happened to her real mother on the day Eva was born. About why Nancy left and no one ever mentioned her name again. And about why she never came home…
Eva hopes Nancy will tell her the truth about her family. But what she is about to find is far darker than she could ever imagine.
A deliciously dark and twisty tale of deception, secrets and family ties, The Missing Sister is perfect for fans of The Girl on the Train, The Woman in the Window and The Family Upstairs.

How to edit your book - top tips!
A lot of writers struggle with the editing process and let's be fair, it can be daunting!
Before I gained my contract with Bookouture, I was blissfully unaware of the editing process and how many times I would need to read and edit my book. Now I'm almost seven books in, the process has clarified in my mind.
I wrote a blog post to help those who are just starting out, to gain a better understanding of the process a published book goes through before it's ready for readers.
