Overview: I'm the author THE STRANDING (Shortlisted Costa First Novel Award 2021, Winner East Anglian Book Awards Prize for Fiction) and THIS FAMILY, which was published on May 11th 2023. I am based in East Anglia, United Kingdom.
Currently I'm writing (what I hope will be) my third novel and adapting THE STRANDING for the screen with my co-writer Afua Hirsch for Fremantle.
I also host a podcast called NOVEL EXPERIENCE where I chat to authors, from across form and genre, all at different stages in their careers, who generously give an insight into how they write, why they write and their journeys to, through and beyond publication.
Genre: Fiction > Sci-Fi/Fantasy

The Stranding (2022)
HER WORLD FELL TO PIECES.
FROM THE BONES SHE BUILT A NEW LIFE.
Ruth lives in the heart of the city. Working, drinking, falling in love: the rhythm of her vivid and complicated life is set against a background hum of darkening news reports from which she deliberately turns away.
When a new romance becomes claustrophobic, Ruth chooses to leave behind the failing relationship, but also her beloved friends and family, and travels to the other side of the world in pursuit of her dream life working with whales in New Zealand.
But when Ruth arrives, the news cycle she has been ignoring for so long is now the new reality. Far from home and with no real hope of survival, she finds herself climbing into the mouth of a beached whale alongside a stranger. When she emerges, it is to a landscape that bears no relation to the world they knew before.
When all has been razed to the ground, what does it mean to build a life?
The Stranding is a story about the hope that can remain even when the world is changed beyond recognition.
This Family (2023)
From the Costa-shortlisted author of THE STRANDING
Mary has raised her daughters in this house. Watched them play and fight and grow up in this house. Today it is the house where she will get married.
The wedding celebrations have brought the fractured family together for the first time in years:
There is Phoebe and her husband Michael, children in tow.
The young and sensitive Rosie, with her new partner.
Irene, Mary’s ex-mother-in-law.
And Emma. There, despite all that has gone before.
Set over the course of an English summer’s day and punctuated with memories from the past forty years of love and betrayal, hope and joy, heartbreak and grief, this is the story of a family. Told by a chorus of characters, it is an exploration of the intimacies and transgressions that bring us to where we are, the changes that are brought about by time, and what, despite everything, stays the same.
