Breaking Point
A wildcard tennis player wins Wimbledon, then discovers that a spirit realm one thousand light-years away has been shaping his entire life, and that completing its cosmic mission may be the only thing he was ever meant to do.
Rafa is grinding through the lower tiers of professional tennis when a gaunt, mysterious old man named Jomar begins appearing at his matches, unblinking, deliberate, and impossible to explain. Drawn into Nytheria, a spirit realm hidden beneath London, Rafa learns that his bloodline carries a Lumeheart, a trace of Nytherian energy placed in his grandmother by a spirit who loved her and cured her of an incurable illness. This makes him bridge blood: the only person in either world capable of completing the Obsidian Puzzle and sealing the breach between realms.
Guided by Mismo, Liravelle, and Bicu, the Nytherian core team, and accompanied by Stacey, a supermarket checkout worker of exceptional practical resilience, Rafa must navigate both the Wimbledon draw and a cosmic conflict between the Nytherian leadership and Stomar, a rogue spirit of terrifying ambition. The novel closes at the feast of the Emerald Palace, where mortals and Nytherian spirits share a meal as equals. Bicu is appointed Prime Executor of Nytheria. The door to three further novels is open.
Breaking Point is published by Hummingbird Publishing.
Spirits (being flown)
A body in the mortuary. A whisper in the dark. And a doctor whose world is about to unravel.
When Dr Clay hears something stir in the hospital morgue, he thinks it’s a trick of the night. But what follows launches him into a hidden world where the boundaries of science and spirit blur. Beings from other realms begin to take notice.
Haunted by visions and drawn to places that don’t exist on any map, Clay is forced to question his profession, his sanity, and the very fabric of reality. As he’s pulled deeper into a web of ancient forces and forgotten pacts, new allies emerge, some of which are human, some not. Each with their own secrets and stakes in the unfolding war between logic and the unknown.
In a city pulsing with unseen magic, one man’s search for truth could tip the balance between worlds.
The Soul Master
Beneath London’s streets lies a world where the supernatural is real, with redemption coming at a price.
Jo, a former gang member desperate to escape his violent past, crosses paths with Zarka, a spirit healer who sees what others cannot. He awakens a dormant power within him, unlocking a hidden realm of spirits, shadows, and ancient forces.
As Jo journeys deeper into this unseen London, he must confront the ghosts of his past, both literal and figurative, whilst discovering that true transformation often entails terrifying risks.
A gritty urban fantasy of redemption, power, and the thin veil between worlds.
The Time Keeper’s Field
A washed-up footballer is offered a supernatural deal: defeat a rogue spirit that is stealing time from Earth, and win back the career he lost. The weapon he needs is the pocket watch he thought was just a keepsake.
Alex’s Premier League career ended with a series of injuries that left him in a small London apartment, his dreams a bitter memory.
His world fractures when spirit beings offer him an impossible bargain: travel to Nytheria and defeat Valerius, a rogue spirit fuelling his conquest by stealing time from Earth, causing a subtle decay that humanity mistakes for the normal rush of modern life. Alex’s pocket watch, a memento from his murdered mentor, is revealed to be an Xylos Key: an ancient artefact with the power to control and stabilise time, the only weapon capable of countering Valerius.
Alex’s unique heritage as a half-human, half-Nytherian gives him the edge: his human instincts, honed on the football pitch, allow him to navigate Nytheria’s defences like a game, while his Nytherian blood allows him to wield a celestial sword. The novel is a story about second chances, purpose across universes, and the idea that sometimes the fate of a world rests on one perfect shot.
The Lamplighter’s Debt
A murdered detective wakes as a ghost and discovers his death was the settlement of a blood debt contracted by his ancestor during the Jack the Ripper murders of 1888. Solving his own case is the only way to save his soul.
Detective Inspector Alistair Finch is killed by a tall, dark figure known as the Lamplighter, a supernatural entity he was investigating after a ritualistic murder brought him to its door. Mismo and Liravelle encounter his disembodied consciousness and reveal the truth: his death was the last instalment on a pact his great-grandfather struck in 1888. Finch becomes a ghost-detective and, with Nytherian assistance, travels back to Whitechapel during the Autumn of Terror to investigate his ancestor’s deal, discovering that the Lamplighter’s master was both the originator of the pact and Jack the Ripper himself. The antagonist at scale is Kaya Tora, a rogue Nytherian spirit who built the Lamplighter as a tool to harvest human genetic code.
Finch is transformed through trials into a spirit-warrior, half-human, half Nytherian, and leads a supernatural heist on Kaya Tora’s Nytherian stronghold. The ultimate villain is an Umtara, a rogue spirit in a human body operating from the British Library. The novel ends with Finch permanently materialised, reinstated, married to his partner DS Jennie Hale, and appointed to lead a covert government unit for supernatural crime.
The Plague Meridian
A London doctor discovers that the mysterious illness destroying her patients is not a virus at all, it is a weaponised spiritual construct, created by a rogue spirit who has also infiltrated the highest levels of British political power.
Dr Alya Kade is losing patients to a disease that defies all medical explanation, a rapid cellular decay that exhibits patterns suggesting intelligence rather than pathology. When Liravelle and Mismo reveal that the illness is a hybrid: a biological agent infused with Nytherian energy, created by the rogue spirit Karabey, Alya is drawn into a global and temporal investigation that takes her from a classified US military facility (where spirits have been imprisoned by authorities who mistook them for extraterrestrials), to post-atomic Hiroshima, to Greenwich and the Meridian itself.
A human conspiracy runs alongside the spiritual one: a compromised High Court judge and a Member of Parliament named Eleanor Whitcombe have been using occult ritual and spirit energy to manipulate political systems.
The resolution requires Alya’s colleague, Jo, who becomes infected and is transformed into a living conduit between human and spirit systems, to act as a bridge that allows the Chronolith (the ancient device maintaining balance between realms) to recalibrate and incorporate the human variable into its design. The Meridian stabilises, the virus is neutralised, and the novel closes with a subtle intimation that the evolved Chronolith continues to observe, the balance between worlds is not fixed, but ongoing.
