I'm a British-born author of psychological thrillers and mysteries, including the Jackson series and the Doucette series. My books are set in both San Francisco and England. As a result, much of my time is spent in both places, plotting, researching and writing.My titles include: Jackson series: MADNESS AND MURDER (volume #1), HIDE AND SEEK (volume #2), THE BLACKEST NIGHT (volume #3)Doucette series: NO ALIBI (volume #1), EASY TARGET (volume #2)Stand alones: STONE COLD. My background is in real estate and finance which provides much of the inspiration for my stories, as does my love of travel and my experiences as an ex-pat. I've practiced martial arts in the form of Shotokan Karate and hold six belts. A little secret about me: Unlike the fiends wandering through the text in my novels, I'm afraid of the dark.
