Read Native Rites online

We’re continuing to experiment with new distribution mechanisms around here and as part of this we’re now making an entire novel available online. Click below to read (and download if you subscribe to Scribd) Native Rites, the fourth book I wrote. Let me be the first to say this is not typical of my work. By book four most authors are finding their feet; I was still trying to work out where I wanted to be.

That’s not to say I dislike this book, which is the only work of mine set entirely in my native England. In fact I’m rather proud of it. My then publisher wanted something set in the UK. I didn’t want to cover any of the obvious locations, such as London, so I set the book on my own doorstep, in rural east Kent. And no, it’s not like this really… honest. Though if you explore the countryside around the beautiful village of Stelling Minnis you will appreciate some of the fictional locations.
