      Regan was just seven years old when her mystical beauty became a curse rather than a gift. That was when her father began to ruthlessly profit by selling her image. The exploitation of youthful beauty is an eternal struggle of good and evil. A stubborn non-conformist Detective Inspector of the Garda is fighting that fight. DI Jim Burrows will play a critical role in Regan’s ability to survive and recover from that exploitation. Regan’s journey from childhood to womanhood will be thrilling and dangerous but ultimately it will be a warm and inspiring story of a young girl’s brave journey to adulthood, her struggle to survive the exploitation of her innocence, and above all - the healing power of love.

      Emma Montgomery lives in rural West Cork but travels the world as a Captain-pilot working for a corporate jet charter company. Her early life was marked by abuse but Emma found escape and healing playing in the blue sky, first in her imagination, and then in her own aircraft. Emma feels safe alone up in her element. Her past still haunts and the long buried memories seeping through growing cracks threaten her security. Increasingly she is pushing the envelope seeking escape in dangerous flirtations both in the air and on the ground in her personal, social, and sexual encounters. Emma, the blue-sky orphan, is in grave danger. She is an extreme risk taker. The adrenalin rush is her escape from her past-life baggage. This is bad enough when it is sexual risk taking, but in the air the potential for going too far is worrying to all who know her.

    What sort of writer am I?Take DH Lawrence's sensuality and sensitivity, mix in a big dollop of John Steinbeck's earthy humour and truth, spice with a dash of Joyce's inventiveness and bawdiness. Sprinkle in a spot of Becket's radical originality. Cook in a slow simmering cauldron over an Irish peat fire given extra heat by the Scots/Irish hard burning coal and dish up in a new bowl of non-conformist Belfast manufacture. That's me. These are big names to live up to but I try.I live in beautiful and splendid isolation over looking the Shannon Valley in County Clare, Ireland. I'm a bit of a cultural orphan - but thanks to the beloved B, I'm very happy in our eclectic art and book filled rural nest.
