Introducing E.B. James
Well it was bound to happen sooner or later. Earlier this year my first Crime Drama was released. It is so unlike the Meredith Resce period drama romance that my readers have become used to over the last 16 years that I have released it under another name. E.B. James.

We took a walk along the foreshore – the setting for ‘Cora Villa’ and we made a special stop in front of the house.
