Thank you so much for visiting me!

Well, the new website’s hardly ‘new’ any more – it’s been up and running for almost a year now but the new news is…there’s another novel coming out! An Absolute Deception will hit bookstores in the UK on June 7, 2012, with a brand-new cover ‘look’, as you can see. I just love the new cover and I’d love to hear what you think. Like all my other books, it’s partly set in Africa – this time it’s the serenely beautiful country of Namibia. I was lucky enough to spend a year there almost twenty years ago and it’s been sitting in my imagination for all that time. People often ask me ‘what are your books about?’ and I find it easier to answer with a nice long list of things you’ll find in them – sex and shopping, yes, of course, but there’s also politics, history, the worlds of business and fashion, secrets, lies, sibling rivalries…all the stuff that makes the world go round, and makes it interesting and exciting and maddening and exhilarating. I think there’s a little bit of everything in them and if the fan-mail I get is anything to go by, one of the things I love about you, my readers, is that you’re from everywhere too, you’re of so many different nationalities, ages, cultures…I even get letters from men, which I’m delighted about.

So, again, as ever, a huge thank you to all of you for continuing to read, in all the formats on offer and for continuing to tell me what you think.

With much affection,
