In 1763 Gideon Seymour, thief and gentleman, hides from the villainous Tar Man. Suddenly the sky peels away like fabric and from the gaping hole fall two curious-looking children. Peter Schock and Kate Dyer have fallen straight from the twenty-first century, thanks to an experiment with an antigravity machine. Before Gideon and the children have a chance to gather their wits, the Tar Man takes off with the machine, and Peter and Kate's only chance of getting home. So begins the saga of Gideon Seymour, The Tar Man, Peter Schock and Kate Dyer. Book One lays out the foundation of the possibility of Time Travel. Stuck in 1763 London is a challenge without all the modern conveniences. How will Kate, a strong-minded girl from the 21st century, cope with what is expected of a young maiden in 1763? Will Peter ever forgive his father and find a way home? What has the Tar Man done with the machine? Book Two finds Peter stuck in 1763 while Kate is desperately trying to find a way to get him home. Kate begins to suffer from side effects of time travel. Meanwhile, the Tar Man is wreaking havoc in the 21st century as he found a way to use the time machine for his own personal gain. Will Kate get Peter back? Can Gideon stop the Tar Man before changes time? The final book 3 has both Peter and Kate stuck in 1763 after creating yet another time machine to try and get Peter home. Now time is splintering due to too many changes brought about by the greed of Lord Luxon, the master of the Tar Man from 1763. This brings in the question of possible parallel worlds. Can 2 worlds exist at the same time? What will happen to Peter and Kate's world if changes continue? Can the Tar Man and Lord Luxon be stopped? What will become of Gideon? The possibility of time travel has always been an inspirational mystery for many writers. This complete set of 3 books addresses several questions and some seemingly plausible answers. There is on-going adventure and excitement on every page.

Originally trained as a linguist, she lectured in French for some years before becoming a full-time author and scriptwriter. Gideon the Cutpurse then gained wide publicity through its excellent depiction of 18th Century Britain, making it popular for schools to assign it as homework. The Gideon Trilogy was inspired by the criminal underworld of eighteenth-century London.
