Born in Scotland, she now splits her time in her farmhouse, between Boyle and Carrick-on-Shannon, in the West of Ireland and her ancient sailboat, moored in Spain.

She will launch her book ‘Extremities’ in The Reading Room, Carrick-on-Shannon this Thursday, March 13 at 7.30pm.

The thriller book follows disgraced NYPD Lieutenant Mac Ryan is desperate to flee his new unwelcome celebrity after his undercover investigation implodes and his partner is killed in a shootout with a notorious Afghan drug baron.

Escape is offered aboard a Mediterranean yacht where an enigmatic English writer, Max, appears equally intent on escaping her past.

But when Max is abducted right in front of him, Mac is dragged into a world of deception, conspiracy and spooks where he must finally face his personal demons.
