This book came about after one of my regular visits to Anderby Creek in Lincolnshire. I looked back at the houses and Power of Nature started to form in my mind. The beautiful but often bleak solitude would be the perfect setting for Harriett. As sometimes happens with books, I aimed for this to more about climate change and what power we could have to help out planet and this paved the way for Paul to enter the story. Then the characters did the rest and took it to a bit of a dark place, with bodies and it didn’t turn out as I intended, the power of the characters win again!
