I was born and brought up in South Africa and it has been the inspiration for my writing! My first novel, The Housemaid's Daughter, is set in the Karoo region of South Africa and follows the life of a young black housemaid and her Irish immigrant employers as apartheid tightens its grip on the country. My second, The Girl from Simon's Bay, is set in Simon's Town, the former British naval base at the foot of the famous Cape of Good Hope. A local girl meets a naval officer during World War 2. In my third novel, The Fire Portrait, an artist finds inspiration and challenge when she relocates to a small farming community; a fire changes her life forever and sets her on a path she could never have imagined. And in my fourth novel, The Case Against Fili Du Bois, an adopted child becomes heir to an estate in the Winelands of the Cape. But is her future threatened? And will her family survive in the light of a tragic death?
