FAQ\u2019s<\/p>\n

How would you describe your D.I. Henley novels?<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve called my novels a macabre love letter to South-East London which are intense, authentic, gripping and tightly plotted. The novels show the realities of a criminal investigation but also the impact of an intensive investigation not only on the victims and the family and friends that are left behind but also on the detectives.<\/p>\n

How has your experience as a Criminal Solicitor informed your novels?<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve always felt that my profession has provided me with the best environment to observe human behaviour. Authenticity is very important to me, which means that I\u2019m able to invoke my own personal experience when describing, for example, the claustrophobic feel of a police interview room or the smell of the cells in the court building.<\/p>\n

Three words to describe D.I. Henley?<\/p>\n

Flawed. Committed. Authentic<\/p>\n

Peter Olivier, aka \u2018The Jigsaw Man\u2019 is the serial killer that readers love to hate. Will we see him again?<\/p>\n

Never say never.<\/p>\n

What are your three tips for aspiring writers?<\/p>\n

1.Read, read and read.<\/p>\n

2.There are no overnight success, so don\u2019t get distracted by who\u2019s on the best-sellers list or who just got a seven-figure deal.<\/p>\n

3. Take a break once you\u2019ve finished your first draft.<\/p>\n

Snippets of the Books<\/p>\n

The Sisters<\/p>\n

“I told you people only run away from bad relationships and debts and Lucinda\u2019s running away from both.”<\/p>\n

Richard always knew that there was something special about his four daughters, Lucinda, Jessica, Beatrice and Emma. He knew that his instincts had been right when Lucinda, Jessica and Beatrice LeSoeur
\nformed the group \u2018Euterpe\u2019 and became one of the most successful British R\u2019n\u2019B girl groups of the 1990s. Whilst Euterpe are riding the waves of success Lucinda controversially and surprisingly leaves
\nand moves to New York to seek her own fame and fortune. Now, nearly 20 years later, Lucinda is back for a not so happy family reunion.<\/p>\n

The Detective Inspector Henley Series<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Jigsaw Man<\/strong><\/p>\n

There’s a serial killer on the loose. When bodies start washing up along the banks of the River Thames, DI Henley fears it is the work of Peter Olivier, the notorious Jigsaw Killer. But it can’t be him; Olivier is already behind bars, and Henley was the one who put him there.<\/p>\n

The race is on before more bodies are found. She’d hoped she’d never have to see his face again, but Henley knows Olivier might be the best chance they have at stopping the copycat killer. But when Olivier learns of the new murders, helping Henley is the last thing on his mind..<\/p>\n

Will it take a killer to catch the killer? Now all bets are off, and the race is on to catch the killer before the body count rises. But who will get there first – Henley, or the Jigsaw Killer?<\/p>\n

The Binding Room<\/strong><\/p>\n

In this room, no one can hear you scream…<\/p>\n

The Serial Crimes Unit are called in to investigate when a local pastor is found stabbed to death. As DI Henley assesses the crime scene, she discovers a hidden door that conceals a room set up for
\ntorture – and bound to the bed in the middle of the room is the body of a man.<\/p>\n

When another body is found, also tied down, Henley realises there’s someone out there torturing innocent people and leaving them for dead. But why?<\/p>\n

There’s nothing that connects the victims. They didn’t know each other. Their paths never crossed. But someone has targeted them, and it’s up to Henley and the SCU to stop them before they find another
\nbinding room…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
