I'm a lifelong hispanophile, with a passion for Andalusia, all of it, but in particular the beguiling city of Córdoba and the glorious coast of Cádiz.
You can expect Spain and sunshine and sea and beach and snowstorms and octopi and wildness and birds and travel and wonder as the backdrop to my characters' lives.
I love to explore relationships in all their layered complexity. That's what my books are about: who we are and how we live and love.
The pain and the joy. The living and the dying. The love and the hope.
