Interview with the author.
Why did you decide to write Kestrel Island?
I wanted to write a good old-fashioned adventure story, with heroes and villains and a thrilling climax. Kestrel Island is the story of 12 year old Sophie’s journey from cautious and risk-averse schoolgirl to courageous hero who saves the world. It’s also the story of an unlikely friendship that develops between Sophie and 16 year old Sienna and the close bond they form as they fight to survive.
Who would be most likely to enjoy the book?
The book was written for boys and girls aged 9 – 14, but I hope it’s a book that anyone could read and enjoy. It is intended to be a thrilling adventure, with twists and turns, dastardly villains and desperate escapes, as our heroes try to save humanity from the menace that is brewing on Kestrel Island.
What are you working on at the moment?
I’m currently writing the second book in the Sophie Watson Adventure Mystery Series. It’s late October and Sophie is back home in Hampton Spa, looking forward to Halloween. But a strange and terrifying creature has been sighted in the woods on the outskirts of the town, and when Sophie decides to investigate it leads her into another thrilling adventure.
