My journey as a writer began years ago, kindled by an early fascination with English literature and language, a passion ignited during my GCSE studies. It was the timeless narrative of 'Of Mice and Men' that first captured my imagination, leading me down a path forever intertwined with storytelling.
As life unfolded, I explored various passions and embraced the responsibilities of adulthood. I navigated through life's complexities, finding joy and fulfilment in raising two wonderful sons. Now, as they step into their journeys, I've been graced with the opportunity to revisit my first love: writing.
My ambition is to craft immersive worlds that readers can lose themselves in, worlds where the lines between the supernatural, crime thrillers, and horror blur into an irresistible tapestry of intrigue and character-driven narratives. "Secrets in the Bones," my fourth novel, marks a significant milestone in my writing career. It represents not just another story but a venture outside my comfort zone, being the first work I've presented to agents and publishers.
With a treasure trove of stories waiting to be told, my journey as an author is far from over. I am currently immersed in writing "The Cursed Knights - the Book of the Dead," a foray deeper into the horror genre. Each new story is an adventure, an opportunity to explore the uncharted realms of imagination, and a chance to connect with readers who share my love for the mysterious and the macabre.
Gerald Ackerman, now the 'Demon Knight Templar', and his friend Nathan, a 'Hellhound', must recover Pandora's box to close the gates of hell. With supernatural detectives and a village trapped in a demonic fail-safe, they race to stop the undead and demonic Knights from unleashing Baphomet. Dive into a gripping tale of horror and survival where every shadow hides a sinister secret.
"Let me in. Let the darkness in,". Gerald Ackerman sees the evil in the mundane—decaying visages and ghostly remnants. In Willowbrook, he faces the terrifying Whispering Man, and a curse linked to a deviant sect of the Knights Templar. With supernatural allies, Gerald races to prevent an apocalyptic horror. Haunted by cryptic messages, he battles sinister forces to save his family and his sanity.
"In 'Hear the Souls,' the Rickman family faces the haunting legacy of 66 Carpenter Street, as young Nicholas uses his supernatural gifts to unravel a sinister mystery and rescue his vanished sister from an evil that has returned with a vengeance."
"Detective Reynolds tackles a chilling case tied to a long-hidden masquerade murder in London. As he faces supernatural horrors and a sinister killer, personal and professional worlds collide in this gripping, supernatural thriller."
Join Detective Reynolds in the picturesque Cruden Bay, Scotland, unravelling a 300-year-old murder with forensic pathologist Ellena Walker. They confront supernatural horrors, relentless vampires, and a looming darkness that blurs the line between love and terror. 'Secrets in the Bones' is a spine-tingling tale that will leave you questioning the depths of darkness in the most picturesque places.
