  • Are The French Photographer and The Paris Orphan the same book?

    Yes, they are. The book is published in Australia, New Zealand, the UK and most translation markets as The French Photographer but it is published in the US as The Paris Orphan. If you re-purchased the book in error, please contact the book seller.

  • Can you attend my book club?

    While I’m so grateful book clubs who select my novels for discussion I am unfortunately unable to attend book club events, either virtually or in person. You can find book club guides on the relevant page for each book on this website.

  • Can you speak at my event or conduct a writing workshop for my organisation?

    Firstly, thank you for thinking of me! Secondly, can I refer you to the Australian Society of Author’s Recommended Rates of Pay which provide a framework around what you might expect to pay an author for their time. I do relish the opportunity to speak at conferences and to teach workshops and meet readers face to face but I take my participation very seriously. Please get in touch via the Contact Form on my website.

  • Do I need to read your books in order?

    No, you don’t. They are all stand-alone titles. Occasionally, a character in one book may appear in another, which is fun for readers to spot. However, if you do want to read them in the order they were published, here’s the list (from oldest to most recently published): A Kiss from Mr Fitzgerald; Her Mother’s Secret; The Paris Seamstress; The French Photographer/The Paris Orphan (the same book but published under a different title in the US); The Paris Secret; The Riviera House , The Three Lives of Alix St Pierre and The Disappearance of Astrid Bricard.

  • Can I send you my book to read and/or review?

    My reading-for-review time is quite limited but if you are a publisher or agent who would like me to read the manuscript of a forthcoming novel with a view to an endorsement quote, please pass on your requests via my agent, Kevan Lyon. Please note I don’t take direct requests from authors.
