An arc of blood sprayed into
the air turning everything red. There was a moment’s hush, then
pandemonium as the car sped off and the extent of Becca’s injuries
became clear. Abby’s scream died in her throat. Her mouth tasted of
metal. She bent double, swiping a hand over her eyes as she spat
out clots of skin and tissue.

Born in Salford Emma moved to
the Peak District as a child, commuting into Manchester’s financial
district as a consultant for HSBC. Spells in Brummie beckoned
(Selly Oak then Solihull) after winning a bank scholarship to
Birmingham University before working out of bank branches in Castle
Bromwich, Coleshill and Shirley.
Emma loved English Literature
at school but studied Business and Finance in order to secure a
‘proper’ job. Other jobs have included selling ladies knickers at
Grey Mare Lane Market and packing boiler suits in a clothing
factory. “I did try for waitressing work at one point,” Emma says,
“but restaurants seemed to think I wasn’t capable of carrying
plates from one room to another.”
After moving to Scotland Emma
worked for a housing association supporting socially excluded young
men into employment before setting up her own training company.
Married with two sons Emma
writes from her home in East Lothian, which they share with their
rescue dog, Star.
