DOWLAIS, 1856

In the smoke-choked ironworks town, Eliza Turner’s life is blown apart when cholera claims her parents.

Torn from her siblings, she’s sent to London as a scullery maid in the Earl of Ravensworth’s Mayfair home—a world of unspoken threats, far from everything she’s ever known.

SECRETS AND SHADOWS

Eliza’s hidden drawings catch the eye of the Earl’s bohemian younger son, Ned. But when his elder brother Henry turns violent, she flees—her life once again in ruins. With help from a kind gallery owner and a sympathetic duchess, she finds herself among artists and reformers who see promise in her work—even as the old order moves to crush it.

A VOICE UNBOUND

As Henry tightens his grip, Eliza must decide: stay silent, or risk everything to speak out and expose the truth.

Set against the harsh realities of Victorian industry and the glittering facades of Mayfair, Unseen Souls is a moving story of courage, ambition, and the unyielding strength of creativity to transform lives.

Unseen Souls is my first novel. It will be available in paperback and kindle/ebook format in late summer 2025.
