My novel The
Silent Touch of Shadows (time slip/romance) is now available on Kindle and will be released in
paperback on 7th July.
Blurb:
What will it take to put the past to rest?
Professional
genealogist Melissa Grantham receives an invitation to visit her family’s
ancestral home, Ashleigh Manor. From the moment she arrives, life-like dreams
and visions haunt her. The spiritual connection to a medieval young woman and
her forbidden lover have her questioning her sanity, but Melissa is determined
to solve the mystery.
Jake Precy, owner of
a nearby cottage, has disturbing dreams too, but it’s not until he meets
Melissa that they begin to make sense. He hires her to research his family’s
history, unaware their lives are already entwined. Is the mutual attraction
real or the result of ghostly interference?
A haunting love story set partly in the present and
partly in fifteenth century Kent.
Excerpt:
In the huge
inglenook of the ancient manor house, the remains of the log fire collapsed
with a hiss into a heap of smouldering ashes. A coil
of smoke floated up the chimney, disintegrating slowly.
Nothing else moved in the room. The
shadows that waited there gave no sign of their presence, apart from an
occasional sigh that could have been mistaken for the draught blowing in under
the badly fitting window frames.
Even so, the air crackled with
restless energy and expectation. An electric charge suddenly galvanised the
dust motes into a frenzied whirl, sending them spiralling towards the ceiling
before they plunged downwards again in a never-ending dance.
The
time had come to try again.
The
time had come for the silent touch of shadows.
