In a bid to shamelessly promote myself and raise money for them animals I'm gonna showcase one of my books each day.
Day 1: PINPRICK
This was the second book I wrote but officially my first novel. I always wanted to set a horror novel in the village I grew up in, I hated the countryside when I lived there, the small-mindedness and tedium and how nothing ever changed. I've always been a fan of rural settings for books especially if they dip their toes into the murky depths of the weird. Folk horror and masterpieces like The Wicker Man are one of my favourite horror tropes.
I originally wrote this in 2006 but it underwent a major rewrite a few years later and grew up a lot. The actual main idea comes from a single image I had in a dream but to tell you what that was would be to give some of the secrets away. I hope you find the time to enjoy it for yourselves.
Let me know what you think

SYNOPSIS:
All villages have their secrets Brantham is no different.
Twenty years ago after foolish risk taking turned into tragedy Shane left the rural community under a cloud of suspicion and rumour. Events from that night remained unexplained, memories erased, questions unanswered.
Now a notorious politician, he returns to his birthplace when the offer from a property developer is too good to decline. With big plans to haul Brantham into the 21st century, the developers have already made a devastating impact on the once quaint village.
But then the headaches begin, followed by the nightmarish visions.
Soon Shane wishes he had never returned as Brantham reveals its ugly secret.
