The Reprobation Trilogy welds heavy metal, religion, science, and a twist of the supernatural into a trilogy of unique police procedurals. Reprobation was released in October 2018 to critical acclaim, becoming a Readers’ Favorite Silver Medalist and a Page Turner award nominee. Sequels Consuming Fire and Sound followed, and all three books are Amazon bestsellers in multiple categories.

As cynical young Detective Inspector Darren Swift investigates the terrifying crimes that shake his beloved city, readers have followed him on his journey into the spiritual unknown, and taken to heart his unusual sidekicks – Calvinist nun Sister Helen Hope, and death metal frontman Mikko Kristensen. And while the trilogy forms a complete story, Reprobation fans will be glad to know that the adventures of Darren, Helen and Mikko are just beginning….

Hello and thank you for visiting this site! I’m an author from Liverpool, which is the setting for my award-winning series of crime thrillers. I haven’t always been an author, and I didn’t even dream of becoming one until recently. But one day shortly after the birth of my fourth child, I started writing a story… about a nun, a guitarist, and a Liverpool beach… and I haven’t stopped writing since!

My books are published by darkstroke, and for indie publishers and authors it is an uphill struggle to get our books into bookshops. I set up this online shop because many readers have asked me for an alternative to Amazon. And even more have asked how they can get their hands on my Reprobation merch collection!

So here it is. All books will be signed, and all profits from merch will go to Sefton Women and Children’s Aid, a charity local to the books’ setting.

You can find out more about my writing at my author website. You can also follow me on twitter and Instagram, where I love to connect with readers. Thank you for your support, and happy reading.

Reprobation is a book about a fictional band, so I was thrilled when a real band were inspired to write a concept album based on the book. GEVA’s Reprobation EP was released in 2018 and features six beautiful tracks composed by Georgios Savvinidis and Vasileios Kospanos, featuring the vocals of Brett Fuentes. The limited edition CD, with cover design by Alex Tzanetos, comes in metal tins and the discs have a unique vinyl look and feel, making them a collector's item. Lyrics are included in double-sided B&W insert.

And watch this space for the Consuming Fire album…
