A group of Thrillers

My current thrillers include The Witness, The Cellist and The Photographer.  I am writing two more, one already complete and waiting to be published later this year with the fifth being written at the moment.

Although one of my main characters is a detective, she is not the main focus.  In fact she didn't appear in The Witness, that book focused mainly on the antagonist Mr Mac.

It was not my intention to write a series of crime novels that closely follows the detectives and the police investigation.  I try to highlight the plight of the other characters including the antagonist.  This raises some very uncomfortable situations as we delve into the world of criminals.  It amazes me just how cruel we can be to each other and this often involves unspeakable violence towards women.  

Having said that, each book sees the development of various characters and we are sometimes reminded of who came before.  Josie MacDonald for example from The Witness is often referred to and sometimes makes a cameo appearance.

Mia Ashton and her father Terry from The Cellist and places like White Lace and Promises, a bridal shop, appear time and time again.

Raymond Duval and his 'Restaurant for Lovers' is another favourite.  I like to slip him and his restaurant into the plot from time to time 

Its important to keep these characters and places alive because their input can be invaluable especially when driving the plot forward.  It also adds continuity as favourite characters make an appearance.  

I've had positive comments from readers who are delighted by this.   I also think that if you have created strong and interesting characters then why not exploit them.  

All of my books are available as paperbacks and on Kindle from Amazon.  Paperbacks can also be sourced from online bookshops such as Waterstones and Barnes and Noble or pop into high street book shops and order a copy.
