Guy Caulder, who appears in my novels
The Secret Intensity of Everyday Life
, set in 2000, and
All the Hopeful Lovers
, set in 2008, is the son of Pamela Avenell and Hugo Caulder. Guy’s daughter Alice Dickinson appears in three of the novels. The village of Edenfield in Sussex appears in all five novels.

As will by now be apparent, I am slowly building an ambitious sequence of interlinked novels that explore both the past and the present.
