The Blake Soul is a gripping, emotional love story which violently collides with family feuds, guilt, betrayal and revenge. Interview with the Author Q – What is the idea behind the Blake series? A – The Blake books are supernatural thrillers with a dash of romance. I try to mould that moral fibre inside the heart of all my novels: -The sanctity of human life is highlighted in The Blake Soul -The susceptible young mind lost to alcohol and drugs features in The Blake Curse -The detrimental effect of childhood psychological trauma is depicted in The Blake Mistake. -The Blake Legacy: A Fracture in Time deals with peer pressure, intimidation and that desperate search for an exquisite type of pure love, a love untainted by monetary gains or sexual intentions, a love for the sake of love itself. I try to raise awareness...whether I succeed to do this in all my novels remains debatable, I guess, but the intention is there. Q - What order should I read the books in? A – Each book in the Blake series could be read as a stand-alone. Chronologically they run in the following sequence: - The Blake Soul - The Blake Curse - The Blake Mistake - The Blake Legacy: A Fracture in Time Q - What else have you written? A - Week of Lies is a revenge thriller and romance set in London and it spans a fateful week of lies and deceit. The opening chapter takes us to New Year’s Day where Beth Banks wakes up to find her father dead in their multimillion pound house in London. It appears to be a suicide, but Beth has her doubts.

    That was when we saw the cabin, far off in a corner on the west bank. It was as I had seen it in my dreams—rustic long-forgotten by the world, save for whatever occupied its malevolent little frame. And whatever it was, was nothing more than a black silhouette in a creaking rocking chair on the tiny porch. As I stared at the phantom rocker, it suddenly stopped in mid rock, picked up its head and turned to me, grinning, and started rocking away, never taking its yellow eyes off of me. And there, in the humid twilight of the swamp, a bitter chill washed over me, and my spine felt like ice.When Leigh Benoit returns home to Louisiana for the funeral of her brother and his wife, she becomes increasingly concerned about the welfare of her orphaned niece, Lyla.
