I am particularly happy with our Tackling Domestic Abuse Plan, which I think will provide a strong framework to tackle the day-to-day challenges faced by victims of domestic abuse. I am so proud of what we achieved whilst I was there, particularly in relation to violence against women and girls, and I hope that the government continues to build on this progress. This post gave me the opportunity to work with some fantastic people and deliver some real change for some of the most vulnerable members of society. I could not in good conscience continue in this role in light of recent events, which I believe fundamentally undermined my ability to carry out what was expected of me. One of the main things I have heard from the victims of sexual harassment that I have worked with is that the fear of not being believed, or the system covering up for a powerful individual, is the number one reason that they struggle to come forward. This decision was by no means one I took lightly, but I felt it was one I had to take. If you liked The Handmaid’s Tale this might be your cup of tea.Last week I took the difficult decision to resign from my role as minister for safeguarding. Unborn is a standalone dystopia combined with a legal thriller, taking place in an imagined near future USA. If you liked House of Cards or Bodyguard you’ll enjoy these. The Division Bell trilogy consists of three political thrillers taking place in an imagined dystopian near future. If you liked Survivors or Lost you’ll enjoy these.

The Village series is a post-apocalyptic psychological thriller trilogy focusing on a family whose past catches up with them. If you want to read more of my books, there are two series and one standalone novel to choose from.

(It doesn’t matter too much though, if you want to read Deadly Origins first or at any point in the series, it won’t spoil the other books.) This is the order in which I wrote the books. The big question in this series is: when do you read the prequel novella? I recommend reading it after Deadly Wishes, meaning you get to know Zoe and her colleagues first.

You can read the series themselves in any order you want, but you might want to read them in the order in which they take place. All of my crime books are linked, so you’ll find characters who appear in multiple series.Įach series is designed for the books within it to be read in order.
