The latest tales from Melanie’s writing desk, coming soon to bookshelves near you.

Inspired by the true story of the last women to be hanged for witchcraft in England
The Village of Bideford, 1682
A woman rises from a shipwreck with nothing but a silk shift, a stolen name, and a necklace worth a fortune. She is taken in by three outcasts the town calls witches—an old beggar woman who laughs at The Devil, a foul-mouthed widow, and gentle Mary.
But fear is rising. A witchfinder has arrived. And the woman from the sea carries secrets darker than any spell…
A blazing story of survival, sisterhood, and fear – and of the women who refused, gloriously, to be silenced.


Her story is waiting to be unlocked…
Oxford, 1944
In a dusty Oxford bookshop, Nancy Baker finds a battered copy of Pride and Prejudice with something extraordinary hidden in its margins: a list of stolen keys, each one neatly ticked off. All except the last.
As Nancy traces the story of the mysterious Key Collector, she finds herself drawn into a world of intrigue, questionable morality, and one woman's desperate attempt to be heard.
But the past has a curious way of reaching into the present, and soon Nancy must ask herself: what doors would she dare to open if only she held the key?
