'The characters are the main force in this story with the exquisite and lyrical writing being the star. ' Goodreads reviewer

'I read it in two nights and a profound sense of its depth remains with me still. ' Amazon reviewer

'It was the exact same shocking sound a body makes when it hits a car screen. I knew the sound, remembered it well. I started, heart pounding - but it was only the thud of the girl's fist on the glass, her knuckles pressed white against it...'

A charismatic hitchhiker haunted by a dark secret. A flawed man who is no stranger to life's burdens of loss and guilt. When they collide on a road trip to Scotland, Jamie is mesmerised by the volatile, alluring Katy, until the darkness that spills from the core of his new companion moves from her life to his own and threatens to overturn it entirely.

Loss is a compelling love story that uses the evocative backdrop of the Scottish Highlands to explore the redemptive power of relationships and the limits of humanity against a chilling backdrop of mystery and suspense.
