Karen is currently enjoying a tour around the country talking about her new medieval thriller, A GATHERING OF GHOSTS, set on the wilds of Dartmoor. She’d love you to join her as she discusses everything from holy wells to haunted caves, knights and nuns, plus miracles, witchcraft and dark legends.

She is also delighted to be taking part in the GUILDFORD BOOK FESTIVAL on 7th October this year in discussion with one of her very favourite authors, Laura Purcell, author of the wonderfully spooky and chilling novels, The Silent Companions and The Corset.

Karen recently visited Audible to talk about THE PLAGUE CHARMER. Listen in here!

We may think that as a society we have outgrown beliefs in evil spirits and lucky amulets, but in fact most of us are still practising some of the superstitions of our medieval ancestors, without even knowing it.
