Starting off




Hello - this is my new blog. I hope it works and that all of you will like it.

There's plenty of news to tell you.

First, my new novel, Lost Riders, was published in June.

This story is about children forced to work as camel jockeys. In order to research it, I travelled to Pakistan, to meet some of the brave boys who have now returned home. Then I went on to Dubai, and saw how camel races are being organised now.
