My first book, Catechism, is now available on Amazon and Goodreads. It is a paranormal thriller, set in the UK and the first book in a series about Nick Ballard, a psychic, who teams up with Detective Chief Inspector Kate Garvey to hunt serial killers. Inside Catechism, there is also a link to my website and a free story to download in e-book format. I live in Cheshire, England, with my wife, Mary. I work for a charity and am also a psychotherapist. I mainly write in the horror/thriller genre, and apart from the Nick Ballard series, plan to release a horror novel in the near future. It’s pretty ironic that I write this kind of fiction, as I'm the first person to look away during a horror movie when the scary parts come on. This dates back to childhood, when I hid behind the sofa from the Daleks and Cybermen in Doctor Who. There was also Hammer House of Horror movies to contend with and I found the Dracula series and The Masque of the Red Death particularly chilling.
