I've written stories in a few different genres, but my historical novels are the most successful to date.

My latest release is Three Tales from Vienna , an epic story spanning a century and three generations of an ordinary Viennese family as seen through the eyes of three sisters.

The three 'Holocaust Echoes' novels: The Sugar Men , Rosa's Gold and Beyond the Shadow of Night depict the long lasting effects of the Holocaust.

An Ocean Between Us is a Historical Romance set in the Republic of Ireland during WWII, and
