Two unsolved deaths. One Greek Island. Many unchallenged memories
Thalia, deep sea diver and only surviving member of her family returns to the Greek island of her childhood.
As an adult, she wants to uncover the truth about her mother’s and brother’s deaths, but all is not as it seems on the beautiful Aegean isle. A missing coroner’s report, being politely but firmly stonewalled by the community, lack of medical records, an ugly warning…
Thalia balances her search by falling back into the rhythms of the island, the exquisite nature and customs and by re-kindling old relationships. Some are dangerous, some bring passion but will any of her efforts give her the truth she so desires?

How is Writing In Your Genre Different from Others?
I think thrillers and mystery books, keep the reader turning the pages just that bit more avidly. It is exciting for the writer too, to see how the plot unfolds.
What Advice Would You Give Aspiring Writers?
Write about what you know, but then again don’t be afraid to break the rules. If you are bored with a scene, change it up, turn it on its head. If writing is a bore and a chore, it is not for you.
Author Bio:
The author was born in Salisbury, England but moved to Greece when she was 2 weeks old. She was fortunate enough to enjoy the stunning natural beauty of the Greek island of Paros while growing up until age 11 when she went to school in Kent.
She has travelled all over the world and held down jobs as diverse as working in bars collecting glasses to administrative work for Madoff London, the BBC and teaching.
Greece remains a strong constant in her life while writing and focusing on her family. Return to the Aegean was her first book in the Aegean Mystery Series trilogy and by no means the last. She also writes in other genres and film scripts.
What Inspired You to Write Your Book?I grew up in Greece on a Greek island and couldnt fail to be inspired by the Greek culture and the natural beauty. I am a diver and sailor myself, so all these things combined with a little mystery and romance meant the book pretty much wrote itself.
