DI Sean Corrigan is not like other detectives. The terrible abuse he suffered in childhood hasn’t stopped him enjoying family life with his wife and two daughters, or pursuing an impressive career with South London’s Murder Investigation Unit. But it has left him with an uncanny ability to identify the darkness in others – a darkness he recognizes still exists deep within his own psyche and battles to keep buried there.
Now Sean’s on the trail of the most dangerous killer he’s ever encountered. The perpetrator has no recognizable MO, leaves no forensic evidence and his victims have nothing in common. But Sean knows they were all murdered by the same man. Now all he has to do is find the evidence, convince his bosses and stop the killing … before his adversary gets too close to home…
THE KEEPER is tentatively scheduled for September 2013. UK publisher Harper Collins, US Morrow.
The second novel in the DI Sean Corrigan series – authentic and terrifying crime fiction with a psychological edge, by an ex-Met detective.
DI Sean Corrigan is different to most cops. He’s no psychic, but his own dark past has given him the ability to step into a crime scene and see it through the eyes of the offender. He understands what drives a person to commit murder, rape, arson – but sometimes his gift seems more like a burden.
When the brutally murdered body of a young woman is found in the woods, Corrigan and his team are on the case. But this is not the act of a one-time offender. They’re on the trail of someone who has been taking women from their homes and keeping them captive before disposing of their bodies.
This killer is looking for the perfect woman – and when he finds her, he’s going to keep her. Whether she likes it or not…

Zachary Night has been waiting his whole life for this moment. Like his family before him, he’s finally headed to Indigo 8, a top-secret training center where future Starbounders learn the skills they need to protect the galaxy. There, Zachary meets a friendly alien exchange student and a girl with guts to spare, and he gears up for his long-awaited first trip into space.
But being a Starbounder is no walk on the moon.
No sooner has Zachary mastered the warp glove basics than a mission-gone-wrong puts him and his new friends right in the line of fire. Stranded on a distant planet with a host of alien fugitives, Zachary realizes that space is much more dangerous than he ever imagined. And when a plot to destroy Indigo 8 comes to light, Zachary knows he’ll have to get back to Earth on his own and fast – before there’s no Earth left to go back to.

DARCY BURDOCK is the creation of Laura Dockrill, a poet, illustrator and writer who was once described as the cunning combination of “Lady Gaga and Mother Goose.”
She was named one of the top 10 literary stars of 2008 according to the Times and was voted Elle's faces to watch out for in 2009. A graduate of the BRIT School of Performing Arts, she has appeared at many festival and literary events across the globe. She has some extraordinary friends who will also help promote when the time is right. If there ever was a pop-star children’s writer….
Ten-year-old Darcy Burdock is one of life's noticers. Curious, smart-as-a-whip, funny and fiercely loyal, she sees the extraordinary in the everyday and the wonder in the world around her.
In this first book, we are introduced to her family: Mum, who Darcy loves as much as her favourite fried egg and chips, Dad, who is kind and fair if a bit hopeless, and little siblings Hector and Poppy, who Darcy likes dressing up in ridiculous outfits and having dance-offs with, respectively. Plus there's her non-bleating pet lamb, Lamb-Beth and best friend, Will, to have adventures with.
Darcy learns that turning into an angrosaurus-rex and causing chaos just gets her in trouble, trying to run away from home with a reluctant lamb in tow leads to sore kneebows, it's best not to throw a massive strop just before your surprise birthday party, Hallowe'en is all about spider costumes and having a pumpkin with a wonky eye, and if she's ever in a situation at home or at school where she's not sure what to do, she should write a story around it and the truth will be illuminated by her imagination.

But when they are discovered Agnes is banished to a convent and Theo must stay away if he is to survive.

Praise for The Girl King:
‘The plot is fast-moving, the story is fresh, and it culminates in a dramatic Armada moment. It is as if Henry VIII, Mary and Elizabeth were combined in one character, and unleashed for the first time: so much more fun than another Boleyn book.’ – Independent
‘Speedy, gripping historical fiction, with a feisty, headstrong heroine, a tricky love affair, and a terrible betrayal, as a forgotten queen battles to fulfil her royal destiny.’ – MarieClaire
