My Review Oh no, DI Hillary Greene is retiring! Luckily she isn’t off on her canal boat quite yet, and this latest installment kept me amused on a long plane journey. There is a nice reflective tone to this book, and it balances well with Hillary’s feisty character. Despite having misgivings about giving up her…read more May Book Review… Murder at Work by Faith Martin

April Book Review… Murder by Fire by Faith Martin
My Review… Another great offering from the brilliant Faith Martin. I think this is slightly darker and more complex than the others I have read in the same series.

It can be writing books, journalism,…read more ‘Writing is just a Hobby… Isn’t it?’
Rock On 2018!
So 2017 didn’t go quite the way I planned, but that’s just what happens! The weird thing is, after years spent working on the writing, and then almost deciding that I wasn’t meant to be in the business, it all came good. I feel like I’ve come full circle, and now I’m back to being…read more Rock On 2018!
