Reviews

Praise for East Fortune: This gripping novel has only one major flaw - it was far too short - I wanted at least another 200 pages of these people and their lives - Victoria Hislop Praise for Canvey Island: A tender, intimate account of post-war England, left me both wistful and elated - Jim Crace Elegiac and evocative ... Canvey Island is moving and clearly heartfelt - Observer
