Novel in Progress

I remember death. First my brother’s, and then mine. They came on the eve of my onomastico, my saint’s day, when I was saying my bedtime prayers. Twoscore armed ruffians with burning torches, their shouts echoing through the palazzo as they hunted me.

I'm currently working on my second novel and I'm very excited about it. I can't say too much yet, but it's a feminist, timeslip ghost story set in 16th century Italy. I hope the little teaser (the first few lines of the current draft) intrigues you.

Watch this space for updates!
