About the Author
Welcome to my Amazon Author page! Whether you're new to my work, or a hard-core fan, it's lovely to see you here. My latest book is HOSTAGE, a locked room thriller set on a 20-hour, non-stop flight from London to Sydney. I can promise you lots of turbulence but, ultimately, a safe landing ;-) I'm excited for you to read it, and hope you'll find me on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook and let me know when you've got your copy.I'm the author of I Let You Go, I See You and Let Me Lie - page-turning thrillers that have sold more than two million copies across 40 countries, and hit bestseller lists including The Sunday Times and The New York Times. I also wrote the emotional rollercoaster, After the End: a family drama about an impossible choice that threatens to tear a couple apart. It's the most personal book I've written, and I've loved hearing from readers who have connected with it. So, what's next? This year sees the first novel in my brand new crime series set in North Wales, in a small community in the foothills of a mountain. There's a luxury log cabin resort, a misty lake and lots of secrets. Oh - and a dead body... I'm excited to introduce you to my favourite character yet - Detective Constable Ffion Morgan.
