Latest Release - Below the Tide Line

A quiet village. A hidden history. A woman searching for silence — and finding more than she bargained for.



When Daphne Vale arrives in the Cornish village of Treguddon, she’s hoping for stillness. Her life is in pieces — a failed marriage, a name she no longer feels at home in, and a future she hasn’t yet begun to shape. Renting a remote seaside cottage for six months feels like the right kind of escape.



But the sea keeps its own secrets. A body tangled in fishing nets. Lantern-light flickering where no one should be. A locked cellar door that refuses to stay quiet.




As Daphne is drawn deeper into Treguddon’s mysteries, she discovers the past is never really buried. Old smuggling ledgers resurface, trust fractures, and her heart begins to shift in dangerous directions — toward a brooding fisherman with shadows of his own, and the detective determined to uncover the truth.





As the tides shift and long-buried truths surface, Daphne must decide how far she’s willing to go to find answers — and whether some doors are locked for a reason.



Below the Tide Line is a slow-burn coastal mystery steeped in atmosphere, emotional depth, and quiet suspense — perfect for fans of Claire Douglas, Sue Watson and readers of tense, atmospheric suspense with a romantic edge.
