My very first venture into fiction was when I was a schoolgirl writing short stories, and to be honest, I still enjoy the challenge of short fiction as much as I love getting stuck into the meat of a full-length novel. I was delighted when Tindal Street Press approached me to write a story for their new anthology, Birmingham Noir. I wish them well with this venture into writing about Birmingham. I've always thought Birmingham a wonderful venue for crime: it's nice not to be the lone voice calling into the wilderness any more!

The best of "New Noir": tough, dirty realism from a tough, dirty city
Stylish, subtle tales that tackle the complex realities of betrayal, redemption, ambition and love.
"Cold, dark and very brutal... Birmingham Noir gives the mean streets of London and LA a run for their money." - Stella Duffy
"Dark, smoky tales of a city's underworld lit by starkly illuminating prose and genuine insights into the human condition. A brilliant collection of serious new writing from England's 'Heartland'." - Joolz Denby
