Fiction

My debut novel, Gone (Secker & Warburg, June 2002; Vintage, June 2003), is now available in bookstores and on amazon.co.uk. I am currently at work on another novel.

"Elizabeth has gone to live with boyfriend Spencer in a house made out of beer bottles, tin and concrete in the desert of the American south-west. A buttoned-up product of the English middle classes, she struggles to reconcile her need to do what's right with her compelling desire to embrace the murkier side of life. The collision of cultures, age, death and the terror of staying alive make this a most accomplished debut. (4 out of 5)"
