Only Breath & Shadow

My third novel is starting to take shape and will be out in early 2026.

The novel tells the story of Christian Drewe, a blind Englishman living in Vienna, and Claire Ascot, an American singer, and their efforts to aid a Jewish family, the Friedmanns, and their children amidst the escalating Nazi regime in Austria during the late 1930s. The story is set against the Anschluss, the German annexation of Austria, and its devastating impact, including the establishment of concentration camps and the forced emigration of Jews. It is a novel about sacrifice, resilience, love and regret in a time of political upheaval, persecution and indifference.

Please keep an eye out for it!
