For the first thirty-three years of my life I had no knowledge of my father, no idea what he looked like, his name, whether he was dead or alive. Then fate brought us together. Then, a year later, he decided to hire me.
Although we had talked for a year, my father was still Gawain Morgan to me, a stranger, not my dad. Would the task of locating Frankie Quinn bring us closer together, or drive us further apart?
Frankie Quinn was a con-man, a life-long villain, a member of my father’s old gang. That’s right, my father was a villain too, with dodgy contacts, a shady past and sins he preferred to forget. The police wanted Frankie and, if arrested, he faced the prospect of spending his final years in prison. However, he had a trump card, evidence of my father’s indiscretions. Frankie was looking to cut a deal with the police, my father was looking for Frankie. They knew that one of them would spend the winter of their days in prison; but who would it be?
Meanwhile, the clock was ticking towards my wedding day. Would I enjoy the happiest day of my life, or be left crying into my champagne?
Sins of the Father, ten days that defined my relationship with my dad.

What if everything you knew about parenting turned out to be wrong? Or just wrong for your child? Maya’s about to find out.
Maya Harris is fine. Just fine. Positively thriving. Sure, she’s wasted all her potential. And yes, her 4-year-old’s epic tantrums consume her family’s every waking moment and are about to get him expelled. But for the first time, there might be something she can do about it.
Flanked by her husband, sceptical best friend and unreasonably perfect sister, Maya explores whether Liam’s on the autism spectrum.
Along the way, she must tackle a virtual Everest of jargon, myths, and misconceptions without losing track of the standard daily chaos.

And if that wasn’t enough, the newest school gate mum is an Insta-perfect influencer hellbent on broadcasting Maya’s every parenting fail.
See? Tow-tally fine. Nothing to see here.
Irresistibly frank, fun, and relatable, Odd Mum Out is a laugh-out-loud parenting comedy with a neurodivergent twist, perfect for fans of Why Mummy Drinks and the BBC’s Motherland.

Cressida Fawcett is heading to the English countryside for a weekend of cocktails and partying at her friend’s glamorous mansion, the location of a recent diamond heist. But just hours after her arrival, Cressida is woken by an almighty scream. Rushing to the landing, she looks down into the great hall to find a trembling maid standing next to the body of Harry, the friendly young chandelier cleaner.
Everyone believes Harry’s death was an accident. But as Cressida examines the opulent hall and the beautiful grounds, she thinks something darker is afoot. Why clean a chandelier in the early hours of the morning? And who overheard Harry boasting about coming into unexpected wealth? A small piece of torn silk found near the body has Cressida looking at the guests’ elegant clothes with fresh eyes…
The short-tempered Detective insists that she keeps her curious nose out of the investigation, but it’s Cressida who realises the stolen diamonds were hidden in the sparkling chandelier. Convinced there is a connection between the theft and the murder, the case takes a sinister turn when a guest is killed in his sleep after a brandy-fuelled night of cards. With everyone unable to leave, can Cressida’s sharp eye for detail catch the killer before another life is taken?
