THE NOBLE ASSASSIN – New Book out Now


Love and power, longing and a surprising fulfillment at the court of King James the First, all carried in a thriller-like plot about a real 17th c. woman, Lucy Russell, Countess of Bedford.

Christie says, ‘I think this may be my best so far, and I don’t say that lightly.  In fact, I can’t believe I’m saying it at all, but that’s what I feel.  Fact and passion have come together for me in
The Noble Assassin.

A perfect gift for a reader in your life!

Published November, 2011. HarperCollins Paperback.  £7.99

WELCOME... Please join me in the imagined worlds where I spend almost as much time as I do in our daily world. You’ll find basic information here about my historical novels, but I’ve also tried to tell you a little about being an author and my own experiences while writing. You will also find a short biography, news updates, diary notes, and more about my other work as a poet, librettist and teacher.
