Bio
The Clarke and Fairchild series of novels is a result of my passion for international travel and the moral ambiguities of the world of politics. I had the idea for the character of John Fairchild in a moment of homesickness wandering the streets of Beijing, when I really, really wished someone was to hand who spoke the language! On the whole, I’ll be writing about places that I’ve travelled in or near myself. I live in Brighton these days and I’ve undertaken a variety of careers, of which self-published author is the latest.Genres

I've recently read the first two chapters of Ms. Parris' spy thriller. This story wastes no time taking the reader right into a world of espionage. Rose Clarke wants back into "the life" and must convince Fairchild to meet with Walter, a mysterious man who can reinstate Rose's status in the spy world, a world she's addicted to. I'm looking forward to finding out more about the world Parris has built. I like her style and the pacing of this novel.
Parris writes compellingly and with such bold conviction. The plotline draws you in right away. The characters are interesting, in the way real people are when you sit and watch them. You can't stop thinking about them when you're not reading about them. Well worth the time.
