Welcome, Rebel Reader!
If you’re a mystery thriller aficionado, you’re in the right place.
If you’re a smart reader who loves intrigue and gets a thrill from sleuthing a crime or mystery, this is for you.
If you’re in desperate need of an escape from the woes of the world and the endless news, this is your escape hatch.
Just say Open Sesame, and I’ll open the door for you. Once you join my club, you become a Rebel Reader. And I’m delighted to have you.
Welcome to a thrilling universe, Rebel Reader.
OK, BUT WHO ARE YOU?
I am an ex-spy agency insider turned award-winning thriller author.
I have written eighteen mystery thrillers so far.
Some have won literary awards from the Publisher’s Weekly BookLife prize to the Eric Hoffer’s foundation award, and more. Other books have become finalists in Nashville’s Silver Falchion awards. Some of my thrillers have jumped into the top 100 best-seller lists in the USA, UK, Canada, and Australia.
You can find my novels on all bookstores and book platforms, worldwide. You can even ask your local librarian to order a paperback or hardcover for free for you.
But, I’d like to create a cozy community here on Substack. A mystery thriller book club of sorts, if you will. One where the author is present and you can ask me anything.
What do you say?
Awards and lists mean nothing if I don’t do my most important job. Entertain your mind with every spine-tingling word.
So, here’s my promise to you.
In my stories, you’ll find pulse-pounding, fast-paced, twisty plots. There’ll be family secrets, devious villains, dark deceptions, and enough psychological mind games to make you bite your nails off.
Think you can guess the killer(s) before my fearless detective and her K9 dog can?
I challenge you.
Sleep is optional.…

ALL GOOD, BUT WHERE ARE YOU FROM, TIKIRI?
Welcome to my writer’s den, dear Rebel Reader.
This is where I craft my stories. There’s a skylight above my desk from which I can hear seagulls squawk and sparrows sing. It’s a very pleasant place to be.
As much as I love writing, I also love dark Belgian chocolate, pure Ceylon tea, and good wine.
My favourite pastime is to read books down by the seashore…sipping tea and eating chocolate. My second favourite pastime is to jog along the beach, plotting thriller twists in my head and greeting all the neighbourhood dogs on their walks.
I live in beautiful British Colombia, Canada, and my small West Coast town is where I set my newest thrillers. In my books, you’ll get the vibes of my hometown with the spine-tingling threat of lurking serial killers.
And in my stories, the killers are always closer than you think….
