The Hotel Hokusai

“How would you react if you arrived, young and alone, with very little and knowing no one, in a strange city?”

My first novel, The Hotel Hokusai, is published by Glasgow’s Ringwood Publishing in February 2024. Its central character is Han, a linguistically-gifted, investigatively-inclined teenage migrant in turn of the 19th century Yokohama, Japan.

Read an excerpt here and an account of how the novel came to be written here. If you like the sound of it you may even want to order a copy.
