I trained and worked as a journalist before switching to public relations and and have held senior roles with Amnesty International, the BBC, the National Health Service, the Green Party and the Royal College of Physicians as well as working as a freelance communications consultant.
Recemtly, I have managed to also indulge my love of creative writing. I have entered many short stories in competitions and in 2017 I successfully submitted one for inclusion in Stories for Homes 2 – an anthology published to raise money for Shelter. Ghost Train is the second novel I have completed in the last few years.
How could a man enter the Ghost Train with his four-year-old son and emerge without him?
Ghost Train tells the story of Adrian and Carole Townsend, brought together by her desire for a child, then torn apart by the choices both make in pursuit of a perfect family. The mystery sucks in others, including a police detective who gives up his own family to pursue the truth over the next decade. But whose truth is the real one? Readers’ sympathies will switch as the twists and turns of the story emerge through the conflicting perspectives of those at its heart.
